In April of 1970 Robert Smithson created the Spiral Jetty on the north shore of The Great Salt Lake in Utah. Three years later at the age of 35 he died in a plane crash in New Mexico while scouting a location for a new project. In honor of the Jetty's 40th anniversary and to honor Smithson I gathered together 13 of Utah's most beautiful women and photographed them on the Jetty during the last few hours of sunlight on Saturday May 8th, 2010
The Sirens are:
Becky Lewis Santti, Callie Van Voorhis Allen, Deb McMurtrie, Dianne Lewis, Erica Hauersley Beichner, Erica Salti, Heather Shepherd Gardner, Jen Roskelley, Melissa Menum Millward, Noelle Willard, Saydi Hornsby, Tracy Hyland Painter, Whitney Kramer
The song of the sirens rose above them and became one with the evening mist as it traveled swiftly out to sea; unsuspecting sailors to their watery graves tonight will go.
