Utah Landscapes 4 “Winding Road” - Near Kanab, UT iPhone 4, Camera+ Weather rolls through the west in a way I never experienced growing up in the east. Bowls of blue sky will be filled with rampaging clouds in the matter of minutes. Cloud breaks and slanting rain light up the sky in endless variation. I had just come down out of the mountain pass on a winding highway and was met with this vista. I had to stop and capture the sinuous road winding through the desert.

Utah Landscapes 3 “Roadtrip Sky” - Near Kanab, UT iPhone 4, Camera+ I took a roadtrip down to Arizona last August to see my grandmother. I hit an Elk on that trip and totaled my car. It was a true near death experience. That night as I was driving the sky was more beautiful than I have ever seen. At one point there was a thunderstorm complete with lightning, the sunset and a double rainbow all hovering above the red rock bluffs. I kept stopping to take photos or just sit in the desert with Zoe Keating’s cello music playing and absorb the beauty of the moment.

Utah Landscapes 2 “Lake” - Antelope Island, UT iPhone 4, Camera+ The Great Salt Lake is a bizarre ecosystem. One so different from the oceans, rivers and lakes of my youth. Over Thanksgiving we went to explore Antelope Island, a park set aside for wildlife and populated with Bison, Antelope and other wild creatures. We saw a lone Bison on the road, it seemed unperturbed by our presence and allowed us to drive slowly by and take photos. This shot is taken from a high point on the island looking West. The Wasatch Mountains can be seen in the distance across the marsh of the island and the lake. On the right side of the image you can see the beginnings of the smog/inversion layer that often collects around Salt Lake City on high pressure days. We need better air quality laws here but the state and local government seem to think otherwise. I offer this image as a print as well. My younger brother and his wife will have one hanging on their wall shortly.

Utah Landscapes 1 “Light After Storm” - Salt Lake City, UT iPhone 4, Camera+ I was driving home from downtown and the sun dipped below the clouds in the final moments of sunset. I was in a spot where I could see the city and the sky start to shine. I pulled over and took this shot on an overpass with trucks and cars zooming past me. A small squall was moving across the valley and the sun lit the raindrops and made the world glow for a brief few moments. I offer this image as a print on fine art paper. The final result looks more like a painting than a photo. It is one of my favorites and I never grow tired of it.

Utah Landscapes

The skies in Utah are breathtaking. Every night I am treated to a sunset that seems more beautiful than the last. The landscapes are full of open bowls of sky, red rock, white peaks and mercurial clouds. After the dense grey sky of Seattle for so many years I find myself just stopping to look and forgetting to take photos. But I have captured some extraordinary images in the past year from this place. This next series is of Utah Landscapes. I hope you enjoy them.
