Mesa Arch at Sunrise

This is one of the most photographed places in the USA.  We had to get up at about 4:00 in the morning and drive 45 miles to be there before the sun came up.  It was about 10 degrees below 0 when we arrived.   But it was all worth it.  Sunrise at Mesa Arch in Utah is a sight that everyone should experience.

Another night shot taken in Utah.  My assistant used a flashlight to help light the rock structure.

One of my favorite shots.  The skies were clear and it was cold, hence the milky way appeared.

Night Skies

This is a photo of the night sky above Moab Utah.  The skies are really clear here but the moon was just a little too bright to see the Milky Way.

Cloudy days can be some of the best day for photos.  We are in Utah for a couple of weeks.  It was a cloudy day with chance of rain and snow so we were taking a lazy day in the room.  My husband was napping and I was playing on the computer.  He got up and said "the sun is out".  It took us about a minute to hit the door and head up the mountains to Arches National Park.  We were rewarded with an awesome sunset. And best of all no tourists.  Great place to visit in the winter.

While I was photographing a horse fair I had the opportunity to attend "Cowboy Church".  This is a photo of Crystal Lyons who did the service.  It was very inspiring, if any of you ever have a chance to attend her service you should definitely do it.

I went downtown Chicago to photograph a light show that I read about at Millenium Park.  Unfortunately I didn't pay enough attention to the date on the article.  The month and day were right but the light show was in Jan 2012.  Luckily the Pritzker Pavillion had it's own light show going on.  Things don't always work out the way that you envision them.
