I Won Second Place in Herald Journal Great Outdoor Photo Contest
















This image (Spring Creek -fall-) was entered in the once yearly "Herald Journal Great Outdoor Photo Contest" and it won me second place in the scenic division. I was happy to get such and award and recognition of my work. It was printed in the Sunday August 10, 2008 Herald Journal on a special high quality paper insert. The photo was taken up Logan Canyon last fall. Titled "Spring Creek -fall-" copyright 2007

I was unable to attend the Cache County Fair this year or take some photos there to be judged...as I was too busy to be proactive about it as well as I chose to attend the "Art in the Park" event in Providence that ran at the same time. I have typically ribboned every entry I submitted over the past 10 years (3 photo enteries allowed each year = 3 winner ribbons each year for me), so I gave someone else a chance this year.



I also have a winter version of this same shot and a spring version also.












I have had these printed up at 24"x36" and framed and they look fantastic especially when printed on canvas and framed with a heavy thick rustic frame... They are less than $200 for a framed print and less than $300 for a framed canvas!
I love the 3 season idea as they make a fine series or grouping and I have many other scenics that use the 3 season concept most notably my "Wellsville Mountain Range Reflecting into the Cutler Marsh" series as seen below... These are a framed print at 12"x36" for $150 at the present time.








More of the 3 season concept can be seen at my gallery found inside Edwards Furniture at 1670 South Highway 165 Providence UT...
