It's all about the jug

""Mayor of the Village" Steve C. Nelson shows off an extremely rare earthenware jug made for the July 24 celebration in 1899 for Hotel Roberts at the Pioneer Village in Provo, Friday afternoon. The earthenware jug was sold for two-thousand dollars and is leaving Utah Valley for the first time."

Last week I was sent to take a picture of a jug. Yeah…a jug.

It was an extremely rare earthenware jug made for the July 24 celebration in 1899 for Hotel Roberts. Well, the jug was sold for two-thousand dollars and is leaving Utah Valley for the first time.

Luckily, this dude was there at the Pioneer Village to pose with it. I shot some really lame, boring stuff, but when I was leaving I noticed the red barn.

I knew with the light I could make it more about this jug, less about the dude and more graphic. So I made him un-box the jug and pose one more time.

Shooting for another two minutes didn't seem to mind him, and I am glad I shot the assignment twice in the 10 minutes I was there.
