  • In late October a co-worker received an email from Engineering News Record,  <a href="http://www.enr.com">http://www.enr.com</a>,<br />
for solicitaion for their yearly Construction photo contest.<br />
<br />
I was encouraged to apply as some of my street work and casual office photos is<br />
somewhat realated to the construction industry, be it more of the conceptual side <br />
and not the hands on side it could be considered applicipable.<br />
<br />
I submitted multiple photos before the November deadline and I hoped for some recognition,<br />
but didn't dwell upon it - in Late December I received an email describing how I made<br />
the semi-finals and requesting more information about when, where and how this photo<br />
was taken.<br />
<br />
A few days later I was informed I made the cut of the 32 selected photos.<br />
<br />

  • Whether I'm walking about, at the office, driving etc. I'll frame up an image with my eyes -- or have a fleeting moment of a glance and the spark of the idea of making a picture will emerge.<br />
 <br />
My heart belongs to street photography, and while Salt Lake City is hardly the visual feast - I try to satisfy that craving through other means; at the office, in the car, walking to the train. <br />
 <br />
Friday I was at the office and just happend to have my gear.  I knew some may be wearing Holloween costumes.  Later in the afternoon the office was draped in miday overcast light from natural<br />
skylights - and yet incandescent lamps will throw some warm Pop to the desks of those who have them on.<br />
 <br />
I walked by the desk of a co-worker - glanced at the scene - and I had that "Spark" -- I'm sure that sounded totally corney, untrue, or made-up, yet it isn't.<br />
 <br />
I told Lisa to just keep doing what she was doing - and I was going to take some photos -- the D3s, and a circa 1984 50mm f1.4 lens, shot at f4, with ASA at 1200.<br />
 <br />
I'm very happy with the result -- the lamp frames her from the top - there is a warm glow from the blub - adding contrast to the the background which is cold and white - and the shirt adds color - and her task sparks the viewers interest.<br />
 <br />
