Petroglyphs in Zion

We were looking for a slot canyon that we were directed to by a park ranger but were unable to find it. We did find these petroglyphs at the bottom of a wall so I took some shots of them. They really came out great. They are about 4" high and right at the bottom of a huge cliff. I shot this one at f/4.5, 1/200 sec, ISO 200, manual mode at 29mm with a 16-35 wide angle lens. LYLE

Canyon Overlook Trail

Thought you might enjoy seeing part of one of the trails we were on to get to an overlook, breathtaking. I had already crossed this once and was on the way out when I shot this. LYLE

Big Cottonwood Falls Detail

Three of us went up Big Cottonwood Canyon last Thursday to look for some fall colors. Most of the leaves were down on the ground with some of them in the stream. I really like the way they add splashes of bright to the scene. This is a 5 shot HDR. LYLE

City Park Fountain

I have wanted to shot this for a long time I just couldn't catch the light the way I wanted it. The sky was overcast but bright I used a blue filter in Photoshop to get a blue sky and this is a 7 exposure  HDR in Manual mode. I had to remove a trashcan behind the fountain.

Waiting to Perform

As I was cleaning off one of my cards I ran across some photos that I had taken last summer while at a rodeo. This rider was one of the "half time" performers (not sure if they call it half time or not in a rodeo). I really didn't like the shot but after playing with it a bit and turning it to B&W it came out okay for me. LYLE

Moulton Barn

This is the world famous Moulton Barn. I shot it in HDR but only used one of the photos because the wind was blowing so much the trees were ghosting. It is pretty much the way I shot it other than to desaturate it just a bit to get that old look. LYLE

Teton Panorama

I took 7 HDR sets for this shot but only used 3 of them. When I tried to use all of them there was just too much distortion. I shot it at about 6:30 am to get the sunrise as it broke on the mountains. LYLE
