A few shots from my time in SLC last summer while training for my job. I was out in Salt Lake for about seven weeks and wanted to get around the city and see what is was like. [oops...probably wrong area, mods please move if necessary]

#1 - The train in SLC (filter effect added)

    I really like the 1st one. Also - that storage place with the 'downtown' written on it was there when I lived there years ago. Great city.

    i'm from Salt Lake, and boy I sure miss it. what a beautiful town. If you ever get a chance to shoot the mountains in the winter time from the valley or go up into the mountains in spring and find the meadows filled with flowers in what seems like a sea of temperate desert dirt... I'm betting those would make for some excellent photos. I sure miss my mountains. Now I'm stuck in big city Baltimore, MD. *sigh*

    Your first pic is by far the best of the bunch. It is a timeless shot, even if a clock is in the pic:D, and is exactly what you want in a picture. clap.gif

    The second shot is a hard one to get. I took the same shot last year but just could not get it the way i wanted> I ended up going at a slight angle to avoid the leaning affect.--> Salt Lake City

    Great work - spent so much time in Salt Lake - great city. My personal favorite is "Keep Out' - great quality of light in that shot.

    I wish the tops of the spires were not cut off in the temple shot.......its a great one too.
