Ghost Hunter

I did a little light painting in the Fort Douglas cemetery for a portrait of Tom Young, a local paranormal investigator. Young teaches a 5 week class "Ghostly Guardians" a five week exploration of the paranormal around Salt Lake.

This was a 30 second exposure @ f/7.1, ISO 100. Tom was lit with an off camera 580ex, powered down to 1/32th, and triggered by my lovely assistant Ashley. The rest of the scene I 'painted' with a 1 million candle watt spotlight.

The AST Dew Tour was in town last week bringing along snowboard/skateboard phenom Shaun White. White was ranked 1st going into the skate vert finals yesterday, but wiped-out on both his 2nd and 3rd run in the finals -- eventually finishing third in the event.

Celebration of Heros

UPDATE
Any thoughts on this crop?







Utah Gov. Huntsman organized a benefit concert/freestyle motorcycle exhibition for the town of Huntington, to help the community heal from a mine disaster that entombed six men Aug. 6 and killed three others who tried to save them. Some of the acts included Karl Malone, 'America's Got Talent' winner and ventriloquist Terry Fator, and X Games gold medalists Ronnie Renner and 2006 Dew Tour winner Mike Mason.
