This is an awesome minifigure sized canyon I found a few years back near my home. Itโ€™s about a 10 minute hike.๐Ÿ™Œ

I love the painterly effects of the Twist 60. I used the 16mm macro converter here to get even closer.

This is an ongoing series I started in October of 2017. Itโ€™s amazing how the time flys! These two are still going at it.๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿˆ

After the prank they pulled on Vader they shouldโ€™ve guessed their eventual banishment to Tatooine... they just hadnโ€™t realized that Tatooine was going through itโ€™s own galactic climate change. They werenโ€™t prepared for the deep snow drifts or piercing cold... Frank didnโ€™t seem to be phased; first thing they did when they arrived was whitewash him for getting them into this mess; but he seemed to enjoy it. Frank enjoyed everything.

I took this shot in the blistering cold. A fog had rolled in while I was hiking up the mountains near my home. It was somewhat of an inversion and the temperature dropped from 20 degrees F down to 10 F (-12C).

 

I had planned on capturing a few shots like this one taken in a cavity of a sandstone cliff. I waited till dark to maximize the colors using my Litra Gear. I used the LitraPro for a slight highlight in the front and two LitraTorch2.0s to light from the back and sides. I threw handfuls of sand until I got the dusty look I was going for.

 

I hiked out using LitraTorches after finishing this shoot. It was a hard shoot due to temps but it was also a good experience to try something I hadnโ€™t done before. I am looking forward to more night shoots (in the summer!).

I love the fact that this image has no edit whatsoever. The lighting in golden hour last night was that perfect glow and when filtered through a red-leaf tree it just filled this spot with color. I actually didnโ€™t have any toys with me at first and I ran in to get one. I figured this inter-dimensional creature would also get satisfaction out of the beauty here.

There is a fifth dimension, beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition.

Move along... move along.

 

The words kept moving through his head as he sat pondering; where did they come from? Why did he have such an urge to say them...?

The new LDS Temple in Cedar City, Utah is scheduled to open in December 2017.

As they waited for their care package the snowtrooper unit continued to explore the exposed surface of Hoth. It was so completely different as to leave them dumbfounded. They trudged through a swampy mess of old sticky decayed vegetation.

One can imagine the amount of water that had been released from the deep snowdrifts that had piled up for many generations. They really did stick out like sore thumbs in their bright snowhite suits. They started to think maybe it was a good idea to rub mud all over themselves to hide better, but the stench of the rot made them change their plans. They would continue to wait for a care package from the Empire.

Meanwhile, the Empire - entirely forgetting about their Snowtroop on Hoth had traveled to the distant vacation system where they enjoyed many luxurious planets filled with expansive beaches on endless coastlines. The bitter cold of Hoth was a distant memory...

Light Wonder

 

Light is amazing to me. I work in the transit and telecommunications industry and we use light everywhere. Phones, CCTV, Audio, Images, Security, Safety, Controls, Management, itโ€™s all controlled and communicated with light. Light traveling at 186,000 miles per second. The phone in your hand is made possible by light. The information highway of the internet is powered by light through an intricate and complex system of fiber optics technology combined with light. Without light there would be no color. Without light there would be no warmth, without light we would not have the knowledge we have at our fingertips everyday. I am greatful for light. Intelligence is light and light is intelligence.

 

This image was captured with light through a light sensitive sensor in my new full frame camera the Sony #a7r #alpha #alpha7r #sonyalpha #sonyalpha7r. I love capturing light and colors. This particular shot was taken with a vintage Russian lens the Helios 44-2 #helios44_2. I also utilized three Litra Torches #litragear #litratorch2 #litratorch. One with a blue gel filter for the background and one with a red gel filter to light the fibers. The third I utilized for the built in magnet to hold the fiber optic lamp on the side of a filing cabinet in my office. #mylitracapture

While exploring the town of โ€œCedar City, Utahโ€, I found these old trunks displayed in the window of an antique store. Photo is a few years old.

Ever since the Empire had been vacationing, Vader just seemed to be in high spirits. Not as many choke holds, breathing a bit easier; he had even invested in a selfie stick. But had Frank gone too far? What do yโ€™all think?

This old cemetery dates back to the 1800โ€™s and has many interesting headstones.

โ€œAs we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter the words, but to live by them.โ€ -John F. Kennedy

Happy Pioneer Day! ๐ŸŽ‡

 

July 24th is a big holiday in Utah - it is the day we celebrate the Mormon pioneers who settled Utah back in the mid 1800s. We have a parade where most of the Mormon congregations enter a float representing some characteristic of the pioneers. Itโ€™s really a good time!

 

I took this image a few weeks ago - it was sort of a transition between the start of an idea and the finished one that I liked better. I still like this shot but didnโ€™t intend to share - but hey, here it is for yโ€™all to enjoy!

TK9438, aka Teekay or just TK, flight tested his origami x-wing today...

 

This shot was actually quite difficult to capture. I balanced everything for one and any little breeze blew off the x-wing and it was rather windy. So I had to practice some patience and some good olโ€™ ingenuity and speed to get it just right. Iโ€™m rather fond of the result of sticking to it.๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ‘

Hunkering down during the storm was a good idea - Jim saw many signs that a flash flood had recently rushed through the ravine. The smells of the desert come alive after rain. The sticky stifling heat becomes more bearable although the humidity tends to rise. The succulent plants soak up water from the drenched soil like a dry sponge; storing till the next rain.
