Upcoming workshop – Eastern Sierra, July 11-16, 2009  Improve your photography skills, stimulate your creativity and have a fantastic time.

Well, I submitted three photographs to the Orange County Fair again this year.  We’ll see how we do.  The first is a very popular photograph – Virgin River and the Watchman.  It’s probably one of the iconic photographs of Zion National Park.  Another word is ‘cliche.’  I debated whether to submit a cliche shot or now and last year talked myself out of it.  But this year I decided why not give it a try.

One of the things I really like about it is it portrays my personal style in a very strong way.  It’s very intense and dramatic.  Also, many people who view the print ask if it’s a painting.  It is very much in a painting style and more to the point, it’s in the style of an American Romantic painting.  I am very pleased with this effect.

So, in spite of the fact that I shared the bridge over the Virgin River with about 20 other photographers that evening, I’ very convinced that I came up with something very unique, very personal.  So, in case you missed the link above, here it is again…
