With over 7 feet of snow from last weeks parade of storms the famine morphed into a feast in a hurry.  Unfortunately that buffet was laid out on a very angry table and the mountains have been biting back with a vengeance.  Sadly we’ve lost 2 soul’s in the Wasatch to the White Dragon this [...]

Alta was reporting 6″ at 6 am but the radar was a green blob and it was snowing hard at the house @ 4900 ft.  Looked like an instant replay of Tuesday’s lotto jackpot.  What ensued is the stuff of lore.  Over the head choke on it blower pow.  Ridiculous.  Met up with Carston Oliver, [...]

Ahhhhhh.
Sigh.
Smile.
After 2 weeks of high pressure inversion smog hell and an utterly brutal snow pack the skies opened and the Cottonwoods did their best to drain every last molecule of moisture from the clouds.  A collective sigh of relief and a massive long overdue exhalation burst forth from everyone in attendance.

With the seriously sad snow situation here in Utah there’s been plenty of time to tend to everything but skiing and shooting pics.  I was long overdue for some re-branding work on the website, blog and printed materials, so I put on my graphic designer hat and entered into a new realm of frustration and [...]

When your empty frame makes a good image your action shots get a lot easier. Here’s one scene two ways.  Yeah, I know the sled shot is a re-run….deal with it!

The light and the curves really do something special in both of these images.  The change in mood from B&W to color really amazes me [...]

Like the snow, light is fleeting.  The best light occurs in small windows at either end of a day.  In these windows time seems to move at triple speed.  Here’s what could have been a skiing shot we were scrambling to get in position for and just missed by about 30 seconds. I fired off [...]
