I got to go to Robert Smithson’s work, the Spiral Jetty a few days ago.
For those who don’t know, the Spiral Jetty is an piece of earth work that was constructed in the early 70’s. It’s located on a fairly remote shore of the Great Salt Lake.
The Spiral Jetty is just what it sounds like, a jetty about a foot off the shore bed in the shape of a spiral.
If you ever get the chance to go, I recommend it.
Bring a camera, bring friends.
These photos of the Li family were taken in Provo Canyon.
Want your own? Give me a call.
When shooting skate there’s a lot of “down time”. By “down time” I mean, time spent not skating. Setting up, or trying again or looking for a new spot or taking a breather. All this time adds up and I make a point of not forgetting my camera during these moments*.
I’ve been shooting a lot of skateboarding lately and these are some of the non skate photos I’ve taken. I promise to post the skate photos here soon, but you know, later.
Yep, Nelsen is ollieing a children’s toy. I mean, another children’s toy.
I can’t even ollie that high on a skateboard.
Brooms are crucial to skate missions.
*I’m not trying to say that I’m the first guy to take a photo of a skateboarder not skating and just looking really cool and stylish or anything like that.
I guess when your as tight as Brad and Daniel, friendship ollies are the norm.
Back when this blog was just a twinkle in my host’s eye, I was going to make a zine called The Love City Success Story. I figured I’d want an online presence to go with the zine, so I registered the domain name “thelovecitysuccessstory.com” and promptly stopped any further production.
I eventually put up a photography blog on Love City and got the idea to do a zine that’s sort of based on this blog.
It’s a simple deal, 20 pages of mostly photos with not-spell-checked captions. If you live in Provo copies of the Love City Zine can be found. . . somewhere. I’m not sure where I’m going to place them. If you’re not in Provo you can email me for my address or download the PDF here.
