Wednesday was a field trip to This is the Place park in Salt Lake City for the Nikon Shoot-out in a Mormon pioneer town. The theme was "Cooperation" and we still really don't know what that means.

Check out the entries and the winners in the Nikon Shootout in this video:

After lunch we went to see Art Wolfe present "Between Heaven and Earth". It was an amazing presentation that inspired us to be better photographers. Many of us got to meet Art and chat with him for a bit, and He was great. Lets just say that many books were bought and autographed.

Then we drove back to Utah County for an amazing meal and the biggest miniature golf tournament the UPAA has ever seen. The winners will be announced on Friday, but I'm pretty sure that the trash talking between teams will go on for years to come. All in all, it was a pretty fun day.
