Wind Storm Cleanup

We had a really bad wind storm hit areas along the Wasatch front a week or so back these photos are of the clean up.
It's always so cool to see how people band together to get a task done after an emergency like this.
People sometimes make me mad, but it's times like these that really make me smile as I observe.

Zoo Lights

Some may not like this but it caught my eye tonight as I was wandering the zoo. They have been lighting the grounds for a few years now and it keeps getting better.
Also had a great time walking around with my family.

Elk

These are not even close to being really great images of an Elk but it's the best I could get with a 70-200 with a 1.4 extender on shooting from a helicopter. We didn't want to stress him out so we only made one loop around him and even with that he jumped and ran about 100 feet away from his bedding spot. I love seeing wildlife in their natural places.

Fun filled day

Today was an interesting day for me, I had a morning assignment at the Festival of Trees and just as I was walking out of that got a call sending me to a Trax train vs a mini van, after sending in those I got another call sending me to the helicopter hanger to got shoot an accident up near strawberry res. where an oil tanker had crashed and was burning. So here are a few from the day.
