This was a gravity-fed plant. I presume there is a mine above the plant.

This is Sioux Quartzite. It was layed down 2 million years ago on the bottom of a shallow lake. Due to silting, the wave pattern formed during mild times were preserved throughout the yearly floods. This patterned sand was compressed into the rock you see

All shots here were done on Fuji MS100/1000 shot at ISO 400. I don't think the experiment was all that successful. Maybe this film is okay at 100, but the contrast is too high at 400, and the Dmax is too low.

Their Majesties got Cian pretty good. He was called up during the opening ceremonies, and His Majesty talked about there being unfinished business from Pennsic.
He then described Cian's feats of derring-do on the Pennsic field in great detail, finishing with "We have a special award for this."

Cian fell in hook, line, and sinker. He was sure he was about to get a Sword of Calontir. He didn't notice Sir Riik, his knight, creeping stealthily up the center aisle...
Then His Majesty said, "But that's not why you're here," and Sir Riik chimed in begging the boon. Cian was completely blown away. It was fun watching that one from behind the thrones

Bruce Wilson of Provo, UT thought on 7/17/2007 that this photo was displayed properly and added the following:
"Not a shot I'm proud of, because the light was low and I had what appears to be some color crossover, likely due to color developer exhaustion (didn't replenish at a high enough rate)." 3941

whitney sorensen of salt lake city utah thought on 3/10/2007 that this photo was displayed properly and added the following:
" this was my grade school and i hope they dont ever tear it down." 4720

Donald 187 thought on 5/30/2006 that this photo was displayed properly and added the following:
"Personally I think it is Sclerocactus cloveriae which until recently was a part of parviflorus and whipplei. Its description can be found in journals written by Heil. Not completely opening flowers similar to whipplei but magenta. Spine very similar to parviflorus but more corky. I think its Sclerocactus cloveriae." 7708

Mike Davies of Salt Lake City thought on 11/11/2005 that this photo was good and added the following:
"My grandfather, who lived in Goshen, worked in this mine when it was in operation years ago. I never new exactly what kind of mine it was. Very nice photo of the mine." 2668

Syr Cian mac CuRoi of Calontir thought on 5/9/2005 that this photo was displayed properly and added the following:
"Yes that is me and my knight.... and he did blow me away. I realy thought I was going to get the sword, and was disappointed, until I realized what was REALY going on. One of the more memorable moments in my life. Thank you for taking this picture" 3176

Bruce Wilson of Provo, Utah thought on 2/26/2005 that this photo was displayed properly and added the following:
"Shadow. This is a north-facing panel in Buckhorn Wash, and rarely sees sunlight. Exposure and contrast were set by my digital camera. I have shot this with a 4x5 on Velvia at http://wilson.dynu.net/photo.asp?Photo_ID=6942" 7544

Jim Nowling thought on 2/8/2005 that this photo was good and added the following:
"I was born and raised at Echo Utah. I worked for Utah Department of Transportation beginning in 1965. I worked on the Freeway systen in you photo. I have a lot of memories of this area." 3675

Bruce Wilson of Provo, Utah thought on 10/20/2004 that this photo was displayed properly and added the following:
"No enhancement here. I got the blue by shooting this toward the end of an overcast day. The blue skylight was quite rich, and the darkness helped me get a long exposure (about 1/3 to 1/2 second)." 5819

Dorde Woodruff of SLC thought on 5/30/2004 that this photo was good and added the following:
"This also appears to be S. parviflorus, but quite a young one. But the petals are narrow than in #8164. It is not S. whipplei, which has yellow flowers and grows in the Navajo reservation area in northern Arizona. The name S. whipplei got widely entrenched in the literature because S. parviflorus wasn't discovered and named until the '30s. " 7708

Bruce Wilson of Provo, Utah thought on 2/23/2004 that this photo was displayed properly and added the following:
"This is shot through a Cokin blue/yellow polarizer. I was just holding it in front of the lens as best I could, but wasn't aligned very well. In the end I liked the effect, so left it full-frame. Sort of an unintentional vignette, much like the very early field cameras that used lenses with small image circles. I've tried printing similar shots, but always come back to this one." 6319

Cemal Ekin of Rhode Island thought on 11/24/2002 that this photo was good and added the following:
"I think this is the barn I was thinking of but the angle looks different. My memory must be failing me. Cemal" 5615

Cemal Ekin of Rhode Island thought on 11/24/2002 that this photo was displayed properly and added the following:
"I saw Byrce Canyon for the first time last December. It took my breath away. Then, again in May and I was blown away one more time. Although I came close to seeing the sentinel, I could not go down far enough to see it. Thank you for sharing this extremely good photograph with us all. This is probably better than what I would ahve seen on that cloudy day. I may take another trip there since my doughter and son-in-law are in SLC. You live in a wonderful country there. Regards, Cemal" 6243

Bruce Wilson thought on 4/19/2001 that this photo was 'interesting' and added the following:
"It is a macro shot (using a 25mm extension tube), and using the angle finder. Angle finders are essential for getting shots that most people don't see, because you can get your camera in odd locations (on the gorund looking up) and using the finder still see what you're shooting. Were I to do this again I's stop down a little more and keep everything in focus. Most macro photography has a depth of field problem. I think it's usually done to keep the background fuzzy. It's much better to stop down then remove the background with black velvet . With an angle finder you get sky in the background, and fuzzy sky is still sky. This shot was done on a tripod (set very low), but I had to keep the shutter speed high because the wind was blowing and moving the subject." 3293

Bruce Wilson thought on 4/7/2001 that this photo was 'interesting' and added the following:
"I've always liked this shot, even thought there is a focus problem, and a slight imbalance in the composition. The light that afternoon was perfect, though. Shot outside the Madison SD Prarie Village antique tractor pull and all-around good time, this was the preparation for the ploughing contest. The train in the mid-gound is an old Arco switcher (about 1000 HP) that pulled four cards full of passengers around the site. The silos in the background are a nice reminder we are in the prarie. The shot could be fixed had I waited another moment for the engine to move about eight more feet, creating a line from the silos, thrjought the cab of the engine, to the head of the farmer. And closing down the shutter would have fixed the focus problem. Maybe next time." 3120

Bruce Wilson thought on 4/5/2001 that this photo was good and added the following:
"This truck was a rare find. I went back a month later and it was gone." 3184

Bruce Wilson thought on 4/5/2001 that this photo was okay and added the following:
"This picture was shot the last week of February, 2000. Can you believe the difference this year? The second week of April and the snow is just thawing. The ground is still to we to leave the pavement. This is the city park in Bushnell, just East of Brookings." 3298

Bruce Wilson of Brookings SD thought on 4/5/2001 that this photo was good and added the following:
"A nice coincidence. The two balloons were being inflated next to each other, and the wind caught them just right to make it look like Smokey was wispering something into the ear of Sarge. Luck was responsible for this shot, not skill, I'm afraid." 3630
