Lund Pioneer Days

Lightning
Originally uploaded by Kyle Ford

On July 24th is the Lund Pioneer Days celebration, which includes a roping, rodeo, parade... the works.. I always attend and take some fireworks photos which are to follow, but after words we went for a drive and it started storming pretty good. I was getting pretty ancy in my seat when Katie suggested that we pull over and watch the lightening show. I agreed and found a tripod for a spotting scope and used that because I forgot the camera attachment for mine at home. I was very fortunate to get the shots I did, we stopped at the tail end of the storm, but I was like a kid in a candy store...






I like this one because I can see the park lit up.

I felt like a young kid again a while back, when I found a light up spoon in my cereal. I was so excited haha. It works perfect for light painting. I really want to get out and try it a few more times before I move back to Cedar.

It was really hard to get the spacing of the letters right, as you can't see where you were previously, I think it only took me like 5 or 6 attempts to get this though. I also made one for my friend Kellen.

This was a photo that I took on my hike quite a while ago to North Schell Peak. I actually photo shopped myself into a few of the photos from that day because I had to take the pics first haha. This was quite a pain to line up due to the lack of a tripod. I like how it turned out though. Very fun day.

Wheeler

I hiked Mt. Wheeler this last weekend and had a pretty good time. Took some pretty awesome photos as well. Kinda sucks carrying that big SLR around a mtn at 13,061 ft, but to get good photos you have to suffer sometimes haha. We did the whole hike, up and back in around 5 hours or so, with eating lunch and messing around at the peak for a while. We saw an unexpected face at around 12,000 feet haha. Our good friend Carson's mom, Sue and her friend were on their way down, pretty funny. Here are some of the photos from that trip.

A few deer, who were not even close to being scared.

Fears Tears and Beers Race

Tears Fears and Beers Race
Originally uploaded by Kyle Ford

This last weekend I was out taking some photos of the Tears Fears and Beers Mtn. Bike race that is held annually in Ely. It's an enduro style race where there are special timed sections that are mostly downhill. I was at 3 different downhill locations durring the day. We even had several pro riders show up this year and had doubled the attendence from last years race.

I was really surprised at how well these photos turned out, considering this is the first time I've ever done action shots, short of dropping an icecube in a cup and trying to capture the splace haha. Everyone who saw them on the slide show seemed to be impressed as well.

Here is another photo from the day. The rest can be viewed at my flickr account.

This was taken from the truck on the way to Salt Lake City for Kellen and William to buy their new bikes... First sunrise i'd seen in quite a while.... It was a good one. This is HDR but no pushed really far, just enough to make it look a little better.

This shot is from Ely's Prom. I think the theme was Arabian Nights. They called me on pretty short notice so they did the backdrop. I heard the thing you never want to hear doing business. " I thought this would be more... " ouch... live and learn i suppose. I hope I get next years.

The rest of my Final

True Friends stab you in the front.... I'm making that face because he is kinda really stabbing me haha.



I saw you killing Aristotle, but I know it's all part of the plan. I tried this in the day but it really didn't work out too well.... I like this one alot better.



I'm digging my own grave.... Some people saw this as suicidal... people this is about self destruction.....



I love this city enough that I'll set it ablaze... I really like how this turned out...



Baby you can't dance if theres no floor....



The B&W version that goes with the set.... It's actually the only one that I preferred in color.... I have found a new liking for black and white with this set....

Final

I'll Hang Up My Wings
Originally uploaded by Kyle Ford

These are part of my final for photography. It's based all on thrice lyrics. So far I've had the theme of self portraiture. It's a lot harder than I first thought it would be.

I'll hang up my wings, I'll never fly again. This one is about Icarus and Daedalus.



Shortcuts through graveyards.
This one i wanted just silhouettes but that was too dark, I like how this looks depending on what monitor I'm on. ha.



I want to climb barbed wire fences, warm our hands in blood.



I want to lay on the tracks, feel hot steel screaming at me...

Wedding Announcements

I havn't put anything up for a while cuz I'm pretty lazy lately... I didn't take this photo but I designed the rest of it, she had a basic outline of what she wanted so I just thought I would help a friend out. :)

Edit: That isn't the whole card either, blog is too small to see it, and I need to do some homework so it will do.
