The Utah State Office of Education Title VII Program in partnership with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Red Butte Garden, the Urban Indian Center and the Utah Natural History Museum hosted the second annual of the Earth Connections Camp, American Indian Nature Camp on June 18.
The camp’s goal is to reconnect urban American Indian youth with their natural world and cultural heritage, organizers said.
The 30 campers, divided into two groups, spent the day at Red Butte Garden learning about American Indian traditions, history, arts and craft, storytelling and nutrition.
American Indian educators and specialists from the various partners led each of the learning stations.
Juan Palma, BLM Utah state director, was the keynote speaker. He shared his story of growing up in a family of migrant workers and the difference education made in his life.
Other activities during the day-long camp included building solar toys and constructing dams with the assistance of Bureau of Reclamation staff.
“I was so impressed with the instructors, volunteers, and especially the campers,” said Jeanette Shackelford, BLM Utah State Youth Program Lead. “The kids were respectful and attentive, and I personally learned a lot from listening to the different sessions.”
Organizers hope to continue to collaborate and expand the day-camp to have more students attend.

The Crescent City Connection fading into the distance as we move downriver. I say this, but the lights of the bridge were visible for almost 2 hours as we went downriver. So it wasnt doing much fading.

An AT&T lineman in a bucket truck pulled up to a pole to work on the telephone lines.
My parent's internet connection was interrupted for the last few days from work on the lines on Main Street and these phone lines are very old. Hopefully my parents can get their internet connection restored.
Random Fact: The telephone service provider for the Southeastern United States prior to AT&T's complete takeover was BellSouth, LLC. BellSouth was a subsidiary of AT&T Corporation that was based in Atlanta, Georgia.

Adventures in Seeing workshop - CONNECTIONS
Very obvious to see the connection here, there isn't one single day where I don't marvel at how connected out two special ones are.
But really - it is a connection of three..... Me, the photographer, is always there as well. They accept me showing up with the camera, making odd clicking noises while they clean each other, play with each other or have a little nap. They quickly acknowledge me, and get back to their important business. Such a pleasure to watch :-)

Strange focus on this photo. Used an iPhone as a light point upward through the cord mess. Love those component cables, HDMI got nothin' on their looks. Lowered the contrast in this photo to bring out the background/depth a little, nothing drastic.

S 3190 is one of eight carriages used on the Capital Connection, the daily intercity passenger train between Palmerston North and Wellington. These carriages were converted from British Rail Mark 2 carriages in 1998 and 1999.
twenty years ago and by looking at my old photos I realise that I was good at making connections with people across myriad boundaries. Is it just about a smile...

Short of opening up a computer or another piece of electronics, I remembered that I had this unused card which would work perfectly fine as a macro subject. I tested several angles, capturing the various components of the circuit: capacitors, resistors, etc. I wasn’t happy with any of them though. This is when I flipped the card, revealing much simpler patterns. While I had to stack my close up lenses to get as near as possible to the circuit, I also had to crop the end result in post to get the composition I liked. Those connections are small.
