Football season starts

I’ve mentioned it before, but I’ll say it again, I photograph a lot of football, this week for example i’m shooting three games. Well, high school games started a couple of weeks ago and these are three shots from the early games. What I like about high school football is the kids are playing just to have fun.

Duck Race

It’s duck race time again, nothing like 45,000 rubber ducks being dumped into and floating down river.

Wakeboarding

Wakeboarding is pretty cool, I have photographed the water ski and wakeboarding national championships a few times, but that was several years ago. A couple of weeks ago wakeboarding came to Knoxville and I was on the tow boat to make some photos. This was much different than I was used to, more open, ramps on the water, slower pace and a lot of fun. I have been on many big boats, sail boats, tanker ships, private yachts and such, but I don’t think I had ever been in a speed boat before. I have fun except on the left hand turns( I was on the left side), something about seeing into the water just several inches from me. Here are a few acrobatic shots I liked from the event…

Jamboree

Soccer is actually one of my favorite sports, and here in Tennessee they split up the boys and girls soccer times. The boys play in the spring (when I used to soccer being played) and girls play in the fall. Well, the season has started and I photographed a couple of games during the spring jamboree. Here are a couple of shots I liked from the pitch, I wish I could shoot more soccer…it’s one sport that is still unpredictable and that is always nice.

What’s new?

I like to be busy, so lately I have been really happy cause I haven’t had time to sit down. High School football started a few weeks ago, Tennessee football starts this weekend. I’ve been busy with several assignments from the University of Tennessee and several from newspapers. As you may know, I also teach photojournalism at Pellissippi State Community College and classes started this week. I am teaching two classes now and my observations from the first class are positive. I had several people engaged and had a pretty good discussion, I can’t wait to see some of their work.

Cyclist

I photographed a professional cyclist and did a couple of quick portraits. Super nice guy who made it easy to work with, here are a couple of the shots I liked.

Nice moment

So, not long ago I photographed a girl who was adopted from Haiti after the earthquakes earlier this year. A sweet girl who was very shy and still working on her English. She was talking with her family and make this face, what a nice moment…

zoo

Last week I was in Nebraska and shooting some photos at the zoo. They have a relatively new chimp and ape complex. One of the cool things about it was this gorilla sitting in a bridge above people just watching everyone go by.

Election season

It’s election season again, is it ever really not election season? I went out to photograph a rally recently and liked the background of the photo, and why do all politicians stand in the same pose when speaking?

Old School

I went to tour a local elementary school that is very old to get public opinion on building a new school. Most people who live around the school want a new school built, but it is only scheduled for a remodel. During the tour we went into what was the old gym and is now a multipurpose room and I found this gentleman standing near a window. I like the light and feeling it gives.
