Staples, a blank wall, and lots of patience

I Shot an Elk!

I bet that got your attention. As I have never gone hunting, and don't know that I will, having shot an elk is a big deal! Now in all fairness the shooting I did was with a camera and I did no harm to the elk (however someone else did). My client, Steve Bartholomew does wood carving and had a base for this elk that he needed documented for a brochure. I must say, these critters are BIG! I have seen them in the wild on a number of times but with no reference to say a 3'0" door or an 8' ceiling it is hard to judge their scale. This guy was so massive that we could not even get him into my studio. I ended up shooting him next door at the Academy Real Estate office. Thanks Chuck!

Hope you enjoy these images. See more of what Steve does at his site.

Snow

We've been getting some snow here in Provo and it looks like it might continue for a few more days on & off.

Enjoy the image I made while out walking.

Milky Way Center Region Mosaic

OK, so I learned of this Galactic Center Mosaic site the other day and it has some wonderful images. When I'm outside at night I sure don't see all these stars but they are there. Take a look and use the zoom & pan tools at the bottom. I'm not sure how you will feel after viewing the images but as for me, well I seem pretty small.

Enjoy

Paintball Pop Art

OK, so I found this link on the Make web site. It is amazing what these guys do with paintballs! We've had our fun here in the gallery with Cristall Harper painting but it was nothing like this.



Hope you enjoyed watching this fun "painting" session! See you in the gallery soon.

ps, Plein Air Provo opens on October 2nd.
