Here are some candids sent in by Alan Bank, taken during the IAPP Conference in Peyresq. Another of McIntyre’s favorite photos is one of Bob Hope, wearing a brimmed hat, golf shirt and plaid pants, doing what McIntyre calls a ‘fangandled dance’ as he urges a putt to sink. A 30-by- 40-inch enlargement of the photo, shot in the mid- 1980s, hangs in the Grill Room at The Broadmoor Golf Club. “It’s a typical Bob Hope photo,” McIntyre says. “He was just out there to have fun and was goofing around, doing that dance step.” But apparently it wasn’t enough; Hope missed the putt. When he’s not shooting guests and events at the resort, McIntyre often packs up his equipment and heads for the remote, often desolate areas of the Southwest. A board member of the International Association of Panoramic Photographers, he finds himself drawn repeatedly to Monument Valley, and the areas around Durango and Aspen in Colorado. The scenery in such places is perfect for shooting sweeping vistas of the mountains, lakes, valleys and deserts that McIntyre loves to capture. And just like his photos of people, each picture has a story behind it.
