This photo was taken from Y-mount parking lot overlooking Provo, Utah, with Brigham Young University in the center of the photo. It is late in the summer and the grass on the hills has turned to gold and the sun has turned the clouds to gold. 

An Instant Sunset in Provo, Utah

This extraordinary and unusual sunset for Provo, Utah only lasted about 5 minutes or so. Right after this photo was taken it went off like someone turned off the light. The clouds happened to be in a perfect position for the light. 

Wasatch Mountains from Guardsman Pass

There is a paved, very beautiful road over Guardsman Pass from Brighton to either Park City or Midway. On a nice summer day, the road is well-used but not particularly congested. It is only about 3.4 miles from Brighton to the pass and only 28 miles using the Guardsman Pass road to Park City. If you take the right fork of the road, you can get to Midway in about 14 miles. Keep in mind, that some parts of the road are steep, with sharp curves and dangerous in inclement weather.

This is a double beam bascule bridge in Amsterdam, Netherlands over the Nieuwe Herengracht canal. A bascule bridge (also referred to as a drawbridge or a lifting bridge) is a moveable bridge with a counterweight that continuously balances a span, or leaf, throughout its upward swing to provide clearance for boat traffic. It may be single- or double-leafed.
