Wide Open Spaces

I spent a couple of hours yesterday and today exploring the south side of Utah County. This is the view I see from the area surrounding my new home. Change has a way of stirring up my perspective on so many levels. I thought I'd try to capture some of the mountain ranges I am so familiar with from the new angles they are presented to me every morning. Below are a few attempts to catalog a little bit of the wonder before the "newness" wears off. The lighting isn't perfect but hopefully you can still enjoy these little snapshots from the country.

Yesterday I was working through a lot of stress. I was some kind of mixture of restless, ornery, and a stripe of rude. I was even driving myself crazy! So me and my canon went out in search of something that always calms me down--the natural landscape. There is something about the earth in its naked form that grounds my emotions and helps me sift out what is real. Enjoy!
