Welcome to my blog!

Welcome
A portrait of TL Mair, fine art Photographer

Since this is my first post on this blog I guess I should introduce myself.
My name is Terry "T. L." Mair, I was born in a small rural community in Utah named Heber City, when I was 5 my family moved to the small farming community of Midway, Utah, just three miles from Heber. I have lived in Midway ever since.
I learned to hunt and fish here in this little valley, and that introduced me to wildlife, and the beauty of the natural world.
In 1985 I started a portrait/wedding photography business, but am slowly moving into photographing the beauty around me.
My web site where I display and sell my images is: here if you have a chance take a look.
I am planning on posting images from my photographic travels and telling a little about each of them.
Thank you for your time.
T. L. Mair

Sunset at Fort Casey

Sunset at Fort Casey During our stay on Whidbey Island we had the opportunity to visit many beautiful places, one of them was Fort Casey . Once on the Island we drove to our little home we had rented for the week, then we started to explore, as we were driving we came upon a row of houses that all looked alike, I told my wife I thought they looked just like the houses in Fort Yellowstone, at Mammoth Hot Springs, turns out they are the officers houses at Fort Casey, we had no idea there was, or had been a fort in that area, I guess we should have done a little homework, but then again we love the excitement of finding these places on our own. We drove into the Washington State Park at Fort Casey and had a look around, what a cool place, there is the Admiralty head lighthouse built on a little mound so it's light could be seen by  sailors to safely guide them around the rocky cost line. There are also two "Batteries" the Moore , and the Kingsbury, these

The Face of Tatanka

The Face of Tatanka One of the most fascinating animals on the planet, to me at least is the American Bison, we commonly call this guy a Buffalo. The Lakota call him Tatanka, a name which means " The one who controls us " because the Native Americans relied on this huge beast for the lives, he gave them food, and clothing in the way of Bison blankets, and robes, so in a sense he controlled them. I just wanted to tell a couple of stories from encounters that I have had with these beautiful animals. On one occasion my family decided to take a motorcycle trip to Yellowstone, two of my sons and I would ride the bikes to Victor Idaho, the place we stayed during the trip, and my wife, daughter, and daughter-in-law would ride in our van then get on the bikes for the trip into the park, we were traveling north on the upper loop road, highway 89 when traffic stopped, in Yellowstone when traffic stops you know there is an animal near the road, maybe it would be a bear, c

Kiva Ruins - Cold Spring Cave

Kiva Ruins - Cold Spring Cave A few years ago my son and I decided to take a trip to Arches national park, in south central Utah. We loaded up the Suburban and away we went in the middle of a late winter blizzard, as we moved south from Midway Utah towards Arches the snow slowly began to turn to rain, the sky was bleak, and gray, I wondered to myself what I was thinking to take a trip this time of year. Once we arrived at the motel in Moab and checked in we decided to take a ride up to the park, the heavy rain had created waterfalls from the hanging canyons, and plateaus of the slick rock, they were interesting but the light was flat, and dark, and just nothing for good photographs, so I  left the camera in the bag, and we just drove around, then decided to go back to the hotel. When morning came we woke to find freezing temps and snow, but the sun was shining and it was beautiful!! We packed up and headed back to Arches, the red rock in the white snow was like
