Wakesploration

So this last weekend was the board club's wakesploration which was an awesome event that attracted both amateurs and pros. It was a great to watch and take pictures. I ended up taking a road trip and will post pictures of that trip in a little bit, but here are some of my pictures from this event.

The way it worked is the boarders readied themselves and were pulled across the ponds by a winch, which is similar to what 4x4's have on their trucks to pull other trucks out of ditches. This first picture you can see the truck behind the photographer doing the pulling.



It was fun to watch these guys get pulled across. This event that I took pictures was the best trick.











Some guys did some fun tricks while others were thankful there was water to break their fall.






Some guys wished that there was water to break their fall.



So I hope to post some more pictures soon, but in the mean time leave me a comment and let me know what you think of these pictures and which one is your favorite.

UVU Campus Through my Eyes

This week was the last week of classes and I was feeling a bit of stress, having to turn in papers that I knew that I need to finish all semester long. I am the number one procrastinator, but luckily I got it all done and now I just need to focus on my finals coming up Monday and Tuesday.

But while I was hustling around campus trying to get everything done I couldn't think of anything but taking pictures, so logically the first chance I got I went and took pictures. I have wanted to take pictures all week long.

Something that I really tried to work on was my vanishing points and to truly capture the patterns that surround me on campus.

This next picture was taken in what is known as the hall of flags. Everyone sits down here from time to time, because it's a great place to sit, relax and visit with friends - and check out the girls walking by.

UVU has one of the best dance teams in the nation and constantly get awards for their great performances. I've always walked by and admired them for their grace, which is something that I don't have myself.

UVSC is known for having the top paid graduates out of all the Utah Universities, so as I walked by and saw this bulletin board with lots of job offers I couldn't just pass it by without taking a picture of it.

Tomorrow is an awesome event called Wakesporation on campus and it's a bit hard to explain what it really is, but stay tuned for more pictures later this weekend.

I am excited to here what you all have to say about my pictures. Let me know which picture was your favorite.

Thanks!

Matt and Amy Engagement Pictures

Two of my good friends Matt Johnson and Amy Hall recently got engaged and they asked me to take their engagement pictures. We went up the Canyon and stopped at one the park and had a good time taking pictures. They are wonderful people and I wish them the best.

Real Salt Lake vs. Columbus Crew

Saturday my girlfriend and I went to a Major League Soccer game. I haven't been to a professional soccer match here in the US and it was interesting and fun to go to a local game. After having been a few Argentine Soccer matches it really didn't compare. The first half Real Salt Lake wasn't playing well at all and I was disappointed, but they came back in the second half and dominated. The game finished scoreless, but it was fun nonetheless.











So yeah I hope that you enjoyed my pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them. Leave a comment and let me know what you think.

Tulip Festival - Thanksgiving Point, Utah

Located only 20 miles away is a place called Thanksgiving Point. I hadn't ever really been there before other than going to the movies to watch Blades of Glory, but while on my way back from Salt Lake City I saw a billboard advertising this Tulip Festive. There were over 250,000 bulbs planted this year and it was just great to walk around there huge grounds and see the great variety of tulips.

Amy and I had a great time and here are the pictures from today with this new camera:
