Sharp-Tailed Grouse

A few days ago, I had the opportunity to go out with a wildlife biologist on Antelope Island to release sharp-tailed grouse. The trip was part of a project to re-introduce the birds around Utah. I wrote an article about the birds and introduction efforts here, and you can also view a slideshow with more images from the day. A few of my favorite images are below. Enjoy.

Salt Lake City Tattoo Convention

I recently went down to the Salt Lake City Tattoo Convention to write and take photos. I really didn't expect to come across such a huge international event like this on my first month in Utah. Enjoy the photos below and you can click here to see a full gallery and read more about the weekend.


 



 

Tournament Basketball

As the final games of the college basketball season wrap-up, I've gone through and pulled a few of the tournament photos that I shot over the last month for the Standard-Examiner. These photos are from the first day of the NCAA tournament in Salt Lake City and from the College Insider Tournament in Ogden. Full galleries can be found at the link below each photo.

Easter Rendezvous

This past weekend was the Easter Rendezvous at Fort Buenaventura in Ogden. The annual gathering is at the site of an early trading lcation and today is one of the first events of the year for mountain men reenactors around the region. I was only able to stop by just after the set-up and before the main events began, but I did get a few photos. Enjoy.
