I was invited to go up into the High Uintas last Saturday night to photograph the Milky Way. I wasn’t sure if I really wanted to go, but I had the feeling that it was the right thing to do, so I gathered my gear and made the two hour […]
While on my way to the TRAX station in Daybreak, I turned and saw the pink clouds and the sliver of moon. And of course, I was thinking of my friend David Mark Austin who was a great photographer, as I pulled out my camera. Happy 57th Birthday, David!
I was rummaging through some storage boxes the other day and found something interesting. In May, 1983, Lisa and I took our wedding announcement information and photo to the offices of The Daily Spectrum in Cedar City, Utah to have our wedding announcement added to their paper. A few days […]

While I was in Bryce Canyon last week with Royce Bair and the other attendees of his Nighstcape Photography Workshop, I showed Royce a copy of my Oquirrh Mountain Temple Photo. This is the photo I submitted to the Deseret Book/LDS Living photo contest a few months ago. The photo […]
When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, “Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” To this day, especially in times of “disaster” I remember my mother’s words and I am always comforted […]
This was my final post on the Salt Lake SGR Club website: I want to thank everyone who attended, or who even just thought about attending, the SGR meetings that were held during 2008 and 2009. I learned a great deal! In fact, I have a slightly selfish view of […]
I watched an episode today of CBS News Sunday Morning with Charles Osgood. Among other things, they featured a bit on Dennis Walters. Dennis was on his way to becoming a professional golfer when he was paralyzed in an accident. His story is quite inspirational and enjoyable! Click on the […]
Why a rubber duck? Why not a rubber duck?! Originally, we were using our own version of Jon Anderson’s “Olias” symbol as the logo for this site. And then we received an email from an attorney for Lectorium Rosicrucianum: the International School of the Golden Rosycross. In that email we […]
