South West of Utah Lake
I found myself Saturday on the South West corner of Utah Lake looking back to the little bubble of my universe called "Provo." I photographed this same scene about 40 minutes before thinking that the perspective created a beautiful image. But then as the clouds rolled in and the sun set it all came into play. I grabbed my camera and re-shot the panorama.
During this whole process a statement can to mind that one of my photography teachers made years ago. He said something to the effect "Try to avoid the cliché of photographing a sunset, but instead challenge yourself to turn around and focus on the object the sun is illuminating."
