I swung by the marina to check it out but the lighting and sky weren’t going to work for the potential shots at the marina. I did see, however, a good spot further down the beach and headed over that direction. I parked the car and headed down toward the beach. I was running out of time to get setup so I was running to the spot when I ran into a thick grove of lake grass preventing me from getting to the beach spot I wanted. I found how to get to the spot but I was never going to have enough time to get there so I decided to set up shop and look for potential shots. Here is what I came up with.

Stansbury Island

Stansbury Island

This shot is okay, and I like the lighting on the grass in the foreground, but there isn’t much depth to the shot.

Great Salt Lake flower

This shot was one I took at the last minute on my way out. I didn’t know whether it would work out, but I figured I’d give it a try. The sky and the flower are nice, but the rocks obscure the green foliage of the flower, ruining the shot to me. I just can’t get past the distraction of the rocks. Otherwise, this wouldn’t be too bad of a shot.
