A Photo a Week Challenge: View

I know I’ve posted a similar photo to this one before, but it was part of a group of photos from our business. I just wanted to do a little bragging on this one by itself. Our firm won a concrete design award for this building, which is pretty cool. However, I find the view from these windows on the top floor (the building is 8 stories tall) to be one of the coolest things about the building. Because the building is a concrete building, it allows for more open spaces like this two-story space, giving the eventual tenant a wonderful view of the Wasatch Front.

IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO OF AMAZING VIEWS.

Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.

Here’s how it works:

Each week, I’ll come up with a theme and post a photo that I think fits. You take photographs based on your interpretation of the theme, and post them on your blog (a new post!) anytime before the following Thursday, when the next photo theme will be announced.
To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “A Photo a Week Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use the “postaday″ tag.

A Photo a Week Challenge: Three Angles

The rule of threes is widely known and used in art of all kinds, especially photography. Today, instead of using the rule of three in a single image, I’m asking you to show a single object from three different angles. My images are of a recently finished project that we had the privilege of working on. I think this building and parking structure are rather stunning. It was a really fun project to work on.

IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO (OR MORE) FEATURING AN OBJECT FROM THREE DIFFERENT ANGLES.

A Photo a Week: Work

I know I’ve posted about this before, but we own a structural engineering firm. We get to work on a lot of different types of structures: large office buildings, small office buildings, medium office buildings, retail spaces, multi-level parking structures, new custom homes, structural changes for tenants moving into spaces, remodels on any type of building. I get to travel around and take pictures of our job sites, and it is a blast. Recently, we helped one of our nephews and his family on the design of their new home. Their ground-breaking was on Tuesday. I went out to get pictures. Their digger was too late for me to be able to stay and get photos of the actual dig, but I did get some really cute pictures of them and their golden shovel.
