Weekend photographs
Tonight I decided I am going to take a different approach on my blog. I am going to post more photos then normal. They were taken over the last week and weekend. I will write a short synopsis about each image.
The last few months while driving to and from I have watched the progress of a new bank being built in Driggs. Their sign caught my attention as it showed that they were planning on including an architectual detail from the community. I was excited to see how it would look. I think it will be a really nice touch and will do a good job representing the community.
As anybody that owns a truck knows friends can always count on you to help them out. I wasn't sure if I could pull it out as she did a pretty good job burying her car in the snowbank. I tried a few times and all four wheels spun. I went and bought a few bags of sand for weight and for under each tire for traction. It did the trick.
Darren and I go out photographing a lot. It is a really nice chance to get out and see the sites even if I don't do much photographing all the time. Darren always seems to photograph much more then I do. Usually I am along for the ride. This trip I did a lot of watching and hanging out but still had lots of fun. Check out his blog for more info about this photo outing. Darren Clark: Wanderings
Darren asked for my opinion on a little editing for a show he is hanging soon. After all, I am now a professional "Photography Editor" by trade. It was a pretty easy edit. He has great work and he had alredy edited it down to 20 and all I had to do was help him eliminate another 7. Easiest edit I have done in a while. Sure beats looking through 10,000 similar images and finding the best.
This weekend I had the opportunity to do a little dog sitting. His name is Loup and he is my boss's dog. Loup is a great dog. Him and Rusty make the queen size bed a little crowded though.
Darren, Susan, Kristi and I had a great time on Saturday night. We went to Chiz's (Darren we forgot to make any photographs) and then we went to "Walk the Line". It is a great movie and if you haven't seen it I think one should.
Here is sunday night's dinner. An adaptation of Alton Brown's recipe.

Try it, it is the best steak you will eat.
Here is the view I was treated to on the way to work. Before I got into a position where I thought I could make a film photograph the light had gone. Amazing really. I love living in the "shadow of the tetons". As this photo demonstrates, literally.
Enjoy.

Great post. Keep 'em coming. Funny to see the inside of the 'ol photo lab. Love the new bank in Driggs too. Which one is it?
I think the bank is "First bank of the Tetons" or "Jackson State Bank". Actaully I am not sure which bank it is.
Jackson has his own bank? He'll be thrilled! ;-)
Jon, so when is this show of Darren's? This is the first we've learned of it. We enjoy your blog. keep up the good work!
P.S. We're Darren's folks...
I know who you are, Pat and Carl. How could I forget? : ) The show is of Darren's Cave work and is being shown on the BYU-I Campus. I'll let him fill you in on the rest.
when are you going to edit my work so I can have a show?
Darren had the show first then I edited. My editing didn't get him the show.
darn it!
