Mount Superior in Little Cottonwood Canyon from Alta on the iPhone. I would be perfectly happy if February and March could run on repeat for the rest of eternity.

Preston Farm and Winery in northern Sonoma Valley was our favorite of the Wineries we visited on our trip to wine country a few weeks ago. It is an unpretentious place with a beautiful garden and courtyard. Leah is smiling because she just discovered some olives that she actually likes after years of refusing them. I try them myself every once in a while but I still do not like the taste, so I am jealous. I will keep trying though, as I have discovered a taste for some of my favorite foods only in the past few years, such as avocados, mussels, and raw oysters.

This is a band called A Place To Bury Strangers performing at The Urban Lounge in Salt Lake City, Utah. They are not for all tastes, but if you like noise and distortion you might enjoy them. They are also extremely loud and have been known to blow up PA systems at clubs. Earplugs are mandatory. The live show features lots of stuff that make them one of my favorite bands to photograph, such as smoke, strobe lights, and projections.

This is Nick Urata playing a rusty Theremin and singing with Devotchka, a band from Denver, Colorado. They make fantastic recordings and put on even better live shows, such as this one in Salt Lake City, Utah. I still count their show I saw in Burlington, Vermont as one of the best I can remember. It was right before they were featured in the soundtrack for Little Miss Sunshine, after which they started playing to much larger audiences.
