We're getting there.

Well, I have to say that I think I've made progress and the blog is starting to look like I want it to.

BTW, you can click on any photograph and look at an enlarged copy. I think it's a pretty cool feature.

Also, all photos on this blog will be my pictures, unless noted otherwise.

More favorites from the spring salon

This is called "Calendar Year".

Now we're cooking.

Here are some recent pictures I’ve taken of wildlife in the area. From top to bottom we have a sandhill crane on it’s way to breakfast, a great white egret, the only one I’ve ever seen in Utah, then a snowy egret (notice the yellow feet); a great white pelican in flight, followed by a flock of pelicans wading in the Utah Lake Wetlands Preserve in West Mountain, Utah. All these photos were shot in Utah Valley.

Okay, that didn't work

So I'm learning by trial and error, mostly error. Oh well, I'll try something else.

Okay, I think this is going to work. Here's the photo I talked about in the previous post.

I call it "The Artist in Landscape". If you're thinking that's too clever of a title for me to have made it up, you're right. I stole it from an artist who displayed a self portrait in last year's Spring Salon at the Springville Museum of Art. He probably stole it from someone else. So sue me.

I'm figuring things out

Okay, I think I'm starting to figure things out. I've figured out how to add a photo to the header and not have to have a scoll bar on it. That's a start. This blog is going to have a heavy emphasis on my photography, since that is what I like to do. Here's a photo, a self portrait I made "several" years ago (okay, decades) that I call "The Artist in Landscape".

Here we go.

This is a totally new experience for me. I've wanted to try to start a blog for a long time. Today my son Chris called and told me that Susan had started a blog and I said "I wish I could blog." And he said, well, you can. So here I am and here we go. I'll have to learn as I go.
