Mt Nebo

While returning from a winter excursion to the Little Sahara sand dunes a few years ago.

Timpanogos From Work.

Light on the mountain caught my attention while on a lunch break.

Commute

I do have a scenic one most of the time.

Timp Meadow, Film Favorite to Digital Delight

The Wasatch Mountains are the most common scenic distraction for me by far over the years.

On the left, a snapshot envisioned while hiking back from the summit of Mt Timpanogos, and then almost carefully composed after retracing a few steps and taking a few steps off the trail (I still wish the whole shelter were included).  Taken some time in the mid 1990's, captured on an Olympus Infinity Jr 35mm point n shoot with Kodak Gold film no doubt.  A shoe box favorite ever since getting the prints back, often residing in a frame on a desk or dresser, and blown up large on the wall.
On the right, a re-shoot just about the same time of the season, late in the evening while en route to the summit (eventually), captured on July 2010 with my Olympus E-510 DSLR and 12-60mm zoom lens.

My regular post processing, light curve and levels adjustments.


Dramatic result from a simple "auto equalize" feature of the software.
