July

What did July look like for me? Last month I was out and about quite a bit.  I made it up to the Sawtooth Mountains in Idaho, camped in the Uintas, hiked Timpanogos and camped in the meadow, made a few little trips up Millcreek and Big Cottonwood, and last night I was up the canyon for the "blue moon" also known as the second full moon in one month.  

While up the canyon I set up my new hammock for Treble Hammocks (www.treblehammocks.com).  I teamed up with this company and I couldn't be happier.  The hammock is amazingly comfortable.  Here are my July photos in no particular order. 

My Own Backyard

Sometimes I get too caught up in getting out of town to explore landscapes. Yesterday afternoon up Little Cottownwood Canyon (a 20 minute drive from home MacKenzie and I made before work last night) was a great reminder of the beauty that's in my own backyard. 

Some more from the trip

Today I had time to make a few more additions and changes to the website.  I also got a few more photos uploaded.  Please feel free to like and comment on my blog for some moral support ;) 

Yesterday I was contacted by a company seeking trade for photographs.  I am so happy about this! As my love for photography continues to grow it makes me happy to have others support me.  I will add details about this as it comes into place.

Trip Time-lapse

On our trip we were fortunate enough to witness some of the most amazing places.  I tried to make it a habit to shoot a little time-lapse when the clouds and lighting were really great.  Here is what I came up with.  Please take the time to watch this in full resolution and full screen with your sound on.  

Running Eagle Falls

Running Eagle Falls was named after a Blackfoot warrior and tribeswomen.  Kenzi and I stopped there on recommendation from a friend who knew the story of Running Eagle.  We were blown away by how the falls bifurcate.  We love Glacier National Park. 

Road Trip

We just returned from a 3500 mile road trip.  We started heading up through the Sawtooth Mountains in Idaho then made our way up through Whitefish, Banff and Jasper.  Coming home we went through Waterton and Glacier International Peace Park.  It was an amazing trip which produced over 3800 images.  I will slowly be editing and adding these to the site so stay tuned.
