    PHOTOGRAPHERS
    Bryce Giesmann
    "Bryce Giesmann is a retired full-time Art Educator and Yearbook Advisor who has transitioned into a dedicated artist career after 20 years in education. Originally from Waverly, Iowa, Bryce holds a BA in Fine Arts with a Minor in Education from Luther College in Decorah. His early artistic journey was marked by a focus on oil landscapes, reflecting a deep connection to semi-abstract painting techniques.

    Bryce's artistic practice took a significant turn when he moved to Wyoming and began grappling with clinical depression. To navigate this challenging period, he turned to photography, a medium that swiftly evolved from a hobby into a profound obsession. This new creative direction led him to pursue an MFA in Photography from the Savannah College of Art and Design, which he completed in 2019.

    Title or Location: The restricted road to public automobile traffic leading to the Provo aircraft control tower.
    I often ride this road on my e-bike. I'm 55 years old and have had some medical issues, so this is just one of the great ways to keep active. This road used to be open to the public. After commercial airlines began flying out of Provo Airport, the road was closed due to its proximity to the runway.

    I was able to photograph Eric Gales playing his new signature model guitar over this past weekend. Notice how he is playing a right handed guitar upside-down? It was a really cool experience to see someone play a guitar like that! I later found out he is a Grammy nominee for his soulful blues music!

I was all smiles when i looked at the end result. The bokeh effect and beauty of the dragonfly. My camera settings were SON
