Purple Globe, originally uploaded by LeggNet.

A couple of weeks ago I posted a photograph of this purple globe sitting on top of my car. The post included a question about reflections vs. shadows and that the glass globe was hand blown. What the post failed to mention was that my beloved brother-in-law Tyler had created this piece of art (Tyler sarcastically thanked me for giving him credit when I saw him this past weekend). Click here to view the original post.

Tyler and his wife Michelle began learning the art of glass blowing last year and have advanced quickly to a very impressive stage. In fact, the orb picutred here is actually one of their rejects. To see some more of their blown glass, visit their company’s website at www.foreverfurnitureinc.com and click on glass.

Did I mention that the piece of hand-blown glass featured in this capture was created by Tyler… :)

An angry wasp moved into my hot tub, originally uploaded by LeggNet.

One of the many wasps that makes it’s home in my backyard. He looks a tad bit angry at me for disturbing him.

A friend of mine, Bryan Catherman, is a freelance writer and asked me to collaborate with him on a three-part series on digital photography in real estate for a local publication. This is a capture from part one. The complete article can be downloaded here.

Little Sailboat, originally uploaded by LeggNet.

I captured this gentleman guiding his sailboat into the marina at Strawberry Reservoir in Northern Utah. This shot just begged to be manipulated to look like a toy sailboat.

Casino at night, originally uploaded by LeggNet.

I captured this 30 second exposure of a casino in Mesquite Nevada just after sunset. The blue desert sky contrasted nicely with the artificially lit buildings. I found that the long exposure worked well to naturally saturate the color in the shot and add to the dramatic feel.

Yeesh, look at the pasty white legs…. (taken by Michelle in Southern Utah).

On the rocks, originally uploaded by LeggNet.

While editing photos from the shoot I did last week in Cottonwood Canyon, I came across this shot of a mosquito. “What mosquito?” you might ask. Well, by clicking here to view a large version of the shot, you can spot the little guy posing for the capture on the orange rock in the lower left.
