My name is Scott Jarvie and I went here.
As in right here. (see above still… no new picture quite yet)
What the picture is of is not where I’m standing but the general area at which I was at. I promise it’s a real place, I did not lift it from Lord of the Rings or some fantisiful tale with dragons and fair madens.
Where is it? It’s a secret… only I get to know… you can’t have my precious! Only me… well and the other thousand people there that day… well I suppose the other (cough) few dozen million that have probably been there. And yet I will still maintain my secrecy and not tell you where it is… so don’t even dream of looking at the metadata and keywords of this post.
So yeah I drove a long way to get here… I had company and it was a sunny day… we sang songs and made several other scenic stops along the way. But let’s face it just telling the story of this final stop is probably going to take me longer than I actually have time for so we’ll make you wait in desperate anticipation for those other pictures. Right after I finish those pictures from may of 2008 from an awesome road trip that… well yep I still haven’t finished yet. woops. No I promise this time will be different. I will catch up one day… (voice trails off into the distance)
Oh yeah that’s right… we were in the middle of making you jealous of the cool places I get to go as a internationally famous amazingly gifted and supremely humble photographer.
BAM! Take that!
I’d like you to take notice of the water… it’s BLUE!

When things get so busy I sometimes step back and do the lest important things on my list. You know… just to take a break. Well that’s what I did today. I edited pictures from my trip last week.
Having the snow on these formations really added a lot to the whole experience. I was suprised just how much snow there was there.
Way more than there was up in northern Utah. But the same snow storm that had hit provo the night before didn’t hit here so none of this was new snow which I was hoping for.
I’ve been using the 8mm fisheye so much for the JarvieWindow that I thought i’d try it with some other stuff.
I must admit… I loved using it and now I’m glad I own it even more. It’s not just a one trick pony like I had supposed.

I did two weddings in Alaska this year… on the first trip I went up to Denali National Park.
These are the pictures I took.
I know i’m gonna put a bunch here on the post … but there’s some really fun stuff on the Full Gallery
So go there
This was pretty darn cool when the bear walked past us.
Yes we were in a car, we’re not crazy and I don’t own a super telephoto.
I kinda chased this guy around for a while.
Denali is all about Mountains and Animals i’ve decided
So apparently this was an exceptional time to go. It’s not usually this clear. (So they tell me)
Maybe clouds would be fun sometimes but I guess it’s fun to go in abnormal situations.

Taking the Long road back…
On the way back from taking pictures at a wedding in Los Angeles
I stopped at places like Joshua Tree National Park (Above)
And along the Coast (Above)
And I spent some time in San Diego (Including Old Town San Diego – Below)
And a San Diego Padres baseball game. (Below)
I also took a short 3 hour tour through Mexico (Below)
And Finally I spent 2 days at Zion National Park doing 3 popular hikes. (Below)
Of the 3000+ pictures 150 were selected for these galleries
They are divided into two sections.
LA to Mexico
(which includes a substantial amount of pictures from Joshua Tree National Park)
Zion’s National Park
Last weekend I traveled with 3 friends to Page, AZ
While there we visited Lake Powell hiked through a lesser slot canyon and did other smaller hikes around town.
Then on the way back to Provo we spent a few hours at Bryce Canyon National Park.
There are 4 galleries all require Flash to view.
