Idaho Falls Temple at Sunrise

Judi and I went to Spokane, WA to see Damon during the Thanksgiving week holiday, we stayed in Idaho Falls on the way up. When I got up Wednesday morning it was still dark with the sun just starting to lighten the horizon. I grabbed my camera and ran for the bank of the river. The sun lit up the horizon so beautifully that it brought tears to my eyes and filled my heart with gratitude to the Lord for creating such beauty. LYLE

A Frosty Snowman

This wonderful shot of a frosty cold snowman would look great on a Christmas card or framed to be hung in a prominent location in your home during the winter season.

Arizona Memorial

I shot this photo as the ferry pulled away from the dock that is along side the memorial. We were not allowed to shoot from the dock so I shot from the boat and removed the dock in Photoshop.

The Blue Barn

When we were at a show in Eden, UT there was this wonderful old barn right next to the parking area that we set up our display in. I got just a bit of time between customers so I shot this photo. Unfortunately (actually fortunately) I didn't set the white balance and ended up with a dark blue tint to all of my photos. After tonemapping I just turned it into B&W on a whim and it came out great.

Tree of Life

This is one of my favorite HDR photos of the Salt Lake City Temple. Go to the Book of Mormon, 1 Nephi, chapter 8 and read Lehi's account of a dream he had about a tree of life then return and study this photo. It is all there, the river of water, rod of iron, strait and narrow path, tree of life and finally God's love for his children represented by His greatest gift to His children-the temple.

Tabernacle and Temple

This is the daytime version of the following HDR photo. The sidewalk gives a nice pathway to the viewer that brings your eye to the temple.

Tabernacle and Temple Night

The lights that are aimed at the Angel Moroni that stands atop the temple bath it in a wonderful golden glow. This lights of the tabernacle also offer a nice invitation to the viewer that all are welcome here.
