Judy Morris and her crazy day out
Judy is realizing that it is time to go as she sees a wolf across the campus staring her down as if she is prey. As she tries to escape the wolf by exiting towards the few side of the screen, a half eaten bird (most likely eaten by the wolf) attacks her. Is this the start of the zombie birds apocalypse? or is it just a bird twitching around because its nerves are still active and this is all a less bigger deal than I made it seem. Either way works, you choose which one it is.
Judith Morris wrestles a wolf
Watch as Judith Morris bravely attempts to wrangle the wolf on campus. She gives us two thumbs up to show us she isn't scared. How many of you could do this? Not me!

Todd and the buffalo
By Brian Magnuson
Todd had lost his way. He had left the comfort of his home to find a new fishing spot. It had been quite a while since he left his home however, and he was begining to get worried. If he couldnt find a fishing spot soon he would have no fish for dinner. He had really liked his old fishing hole but he thought the fish were getting a little small. So he had set out to find a new one with bigger fish. But now Todd regreted his decision because it was getting dark and he was getting very hungry. Just as he began to loose hope he stumbled out of the bush and onto the shore of the most beutiful lake he had ever seen. He took a moment to digest all he was seeing when he noticed the rather large buffalo standing in the middle of the lake. Todd attempted to get the buffalo to move for fear that he would scare the fish, but the buffalo wouldnt budge. Todd was puzzled. But then the buffalo spoke.
"Todd," said the buffalo "you must not eat the fish in this lake for they are poisoned by the power plant up the river. The only safe fish for you are the fish in the lake from whence you came"
Todd was infuriated. But being a man of cool temper and wise thoughts he just thanked the buffalo and went back the way he came.
"Just goes to show," thought Todd "the grass is always greener on other side."

Judy and wolf
Judy chilling with a wolf on campus. I used brush tool to add some darkness on both images of Judy and the wolf, so they would blend in with the background a little more.
Move!
Todd quickly moves out of the way of an oncoming Razor. Campus and picture of Todd by Judith Morris. Razor by me.
Judy finds a wolf!!

| Our wonderful teacher finds a wolf in the beautiful forrest. Takes a quick picture with a thumbs up before the wolf takes off. |
Todd and the Bison-project
These photos came from the emails from Judy Morris. I used Todd walking and the bison. Todd seems to be following the bison, but a little too closely. The Bison seems to sense Todd is there and is turning his head to try and get a peek.
Wolf in the Quad
These photos came from the email and I used the wolf because I like wolves and I used Todd because part of the assignment was to use a human. The wolf is looking at Todd as if to inform him that this is now his territory. ISU better be on alert because there is now wolf in the Quad.
Pretty Girl and a Duck on a Dog.
Sunday, February 12, 2017
Todd is walking through campus at ISU. While walking through to get his coffee, he stops and sees a wolf, a beautiful grey wolf. It was an amazing sight to see. BUT..... It wasn't a moose so it was an alright sighting for the day. He kept walking to get his coffee but the question is "What animal will he see next?"
Mini Project-Omar Brito
Here is a image of my sister dog named Rico and my sister. I have taken both of these images at her house for this project. I wanted my two subject to look like they are hanging outside at ISU.
Chicken Photo Bomb
This project was a lot of fun and I really wanted to use a set of my own images for this. Depicted here is my boyfriend Jordan Linderman posing originally with my dogs. To the side is a picture of my friend's baby chicken from last fall. I wanted to work on getting finer things like feathers and the beard hair from Jordan in a picture.
Dr. Ownby and the Wolf
I was walking through campus on my way to class, when I saw Dr. Ownby taking a picture of a wolf!
Dr Ownby has always been someone who is ready for adventure and the wolf was ready for a photoshoot. They became great friends within the few minuites and planned to soon run into each other again.
Quad Day Dreamer
This fine woodland creature was found in Las Vegas, Nevada at one of the hotels in 2014. He is now hanging out in the Quad here on Idaho State University's campus dreaming of the girl who found him on that warm October day.
Mini-Project 2-13-2017. Wyatt Wilder
This collage of photos includes a picture of my girlfriend's father when we took a trip to Denver, Colorado. His expression on his face is due to a very large Longhorn Bull that was at one of the stock shows at the state fair. The other picture is my 1989 single cab, short bed Chevy that I spent long, long hours restoring and cleaning. I duplicated the layer mask to add a shadow to the truck to keep it looking more apart of the campus picture.
Mini Project: Wyatt Sommer
This is a picture of me and my girlfriend when she graduated high school. It fit very well into this background along with my friend's dog. I wanted to make the images mesh with the background while still looking as real as possible and as if the photo was taken on campus.
A SEAL IN POCATELLO????

I thought that these two photos would be interesting together. That is a picture of myself cropped out of a picture that was taken next to the 2016 Ford Mustangs that I was trying to win in a raffle. And the picture of seal was taken last summer while my girlfriend and i were relaxing at the beach. This little fella just shuffled his way up to us and literally laid down next to us and took a nap. The photo used here was when he was coming up to us from the ocean.

Marlene, Mayra and the wolf
Judy and the Grey Wolf
Judith Morris enjoys a nice scenic day at Idaho State University Campus. She is very excited that there is a grey wolf staring directly at her. If you look closely, you can also see a small blue bird (Idaho's State bird) observing from the tree. What a great moment to have a camera on hand!

Anna and her shoes on campus-Rebekah Punt
Anna traveled through campus today like Mary Poppins because her shoes are too precious to touch the ground.
Wednesday, February 1, 2017
My poster shows the beutie of the outdoors of pocatello. My use of guiding eye lines and horizon lines draws the audiences attention to the main photo which i borrowed out of the useable photos folder on the class computers. The lighting in all the pictures is somewhat dark but also almost mystical in nature because of the snow and the way the sunlight reflects.
Wildlife In Jackson
I used the pictures that Judy provided to make this poster. I also placed the four smaller images in this specific chronicle order to guide the audience throughout the journey.
Explore Montana Ghost Towns
With spring on the horizon it is time to start planning your weekend road trips and find many endless photography opportunities. I highly suggest a trip up north to visit the numerous ghost towns at your disposal. There is a little bit of something for everyone. If you like to get off the beaten path then I highly suggest a trip to comet, a true, unmaintained ghost town with more than two dozen standing buildings.
If you are the type that like to poke around a more maintained touristy setting, Virginia City if your you! While you are working your way around the lower part of the state, why not hit up Glendale and Elkhorn and have a look at some charcoal kilns as well as a real living Ghost town. No matter which route you choose you will be sure to find something of interest.
All photos shown were taken by me and since there were no actual people around (backwoods trekking) the children seen in the picture to the far right are of my children while visiting Elkhorn.
Let's go bowling!!!
Peek into Wildlife
My poster consist of nature and wildlife. These pictures came from a app. I was trying to do a theme of nature but up close and personal. I selected these photos because they were zoomed shots showing details in insects and animals. Showing details that the naked eye wouldn't be able to spot.
Backpacking is just delightful :)
These photos were taken over the last summer from some of my backpacking trips. The banner photo was taken on the panorama trial in Yosemite at sunrise. Starting at the left most photo and moving right the location of the photos taken are as follows: above Lake Tahoe, Yosemite valley, Ramona Falls in Oregon, and Yosemite Falls (the falls are to my left, we climbed about 70 vertical feet to hang on the rocks above the crowd).
Dubai
Now a days Dubai one of the most popular countries. Before few years it was a desert but now it is the most modern and technological country you can see. There is the tallest tower in the world which is Khalifa Tower and they will open the biggest mall in the world. Dubai like a flower in the middle of the desert.
These pictures stood out to me the most because there are two living beings which show how diverse Teton National Park is. The rock and the bridge show the beauty that Teton National Park has. I went to Teton National Park when I was little and it was a great experience and is a huge reason I moved out to this part of the country. I found the pictures in the Practice pics for Students folder which were provided by Judy Morris.
Welcome to Wyoming
These pictures were provided by Judy Morris, these images are ones that I found the most intriguing from the practice pics for students folder. I really liked the look of the antlers which I have seen in person myself, Yellowstone and Wyoming is an area that I have been to a few times and really enjoy so, I incorporated it into my poster.
yellowstone
This poster is about yellowstone; I love yellowstone but I've only been there once. I love wildlife and nature. These pictures are amazing and make me feel like I am standing right there. So I hope you feel that way as well.
Kailua-Kona, Hawaii
My poster is of the vacation my family and I took to Hawaii last Christmas. We stayed in Kailua-Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii. The banner picture was taken at Punalu'u Beach which is a black sand beach. The two pictures on the bottom left (Gecko and Orchids) were taken at the Hawaiian Botanical Gardens on the Helo side of the Island. The third picture is Pololu Valley and the final picture was taken from a helicopter and is Kilauea Iki; Hawaii's active volcano.
