March Highlights

Looks like I've only been loading landscape/cityscape photos on the blog for the last few weeks. To try and right that, here are some of my favorite photos shot over the last month at the Standard-Examiner.

Aylin Nelson, right, spray paints hand carved letters in the "paint booth" at north Layton High School while Jarred McLane stains a piece of wood during their new ninth grade Pinterest class on Wednesday, March 18, 2015. The new class, where students find woodworking projects and designs on Pinterest, was established last semester as a way to encourage more girls to get into manufacturing courses.

Kokanee Salmon in Utah

I went on a visit to Causey Reservoir today and hiked to Skull Crack Canyon where the Kokanee Salmon are currently spawning. It was beautiful with the color of the fish and the changing leaves. Shooting was tricky and I hope to get back again before they are finished running, but here is one shot from the day.
