Idaho Falls Dawn

from $75.00

Vertical orientation. Canvas prints are available with optional barnwood or hardwood floating frames hand-crafted by the photographer, making a truly unique and one-of-a-kind piece of art. Please see images for details.

In July 2026 I attended the Riverwalk Art Festival for the first time as a vendor. My booth was near the south end of the event with just a few vendors beyond me. That evening, a storm rolled in from the south that was not expected, bringing 50-60 mile-per-hour gusts of wind. I was visiting Jenn’s family and heard the winds outside occasionally but had no idea yet how strong they were. I got a call after I had gone to bed that there was some damage to my tent, but I did not see the message until early the next morning. I got up very early and drove over to the park, but I could not see well enough yet to do much. When there was enough light to see, I spent an hour or so reorganizing. My tent had one corner pole bent beyond repair, but I was able to make it work for the day. None of my art was damaged. The two vendors beyond me, and 11 others completely lost their tents, so I was lucky. When I finished what I could do, I drove over to the Broadway bridge and got some early dawn photos. The sky had some residual dust and smoke, making a beautiful sunrise. For this photo, I set the camera on the sidewalk between guard rails for this low angle, and I was very pleased with the result!
