Sunday afternoon

I took this shot of Mount Timpanogos from our van just before we pulled onto the freeway.

I guess it would have been more impressive with a panoramic lens. Trust me, it was breathtaking.

Here’s a landscape view:

That’s the problem with photography: it’s a lie.

Something amazing and good is often made to look stupid and terrible, and vice versa. One of my favorite sayings in recent years goes something like this:

A picture is worth a thousand words, but only those to describe the picture. Hardly any meaningful sets of a thousand words can be adequately described with pictures.
