A wild, wild sport. First race that I shot, a chariot basically fell apart beneath the driver. I don’t know if he bailed out, or if he couldn’t hang on but he ate it hard at 45 mph. Ouch. He walked away relatively unscathed, save for a pretty good laceration on the bridge of his [...]
Among my axes to grind from my Utah State exerience the other day was the fact that there were hardly any places to shoot from. I got out there a few minutes before the game and all the choice spots were taken. The other photogs knew better to get out there early. It was a [...]
My favorite shot from the game tonight. Jazz beat Memphis in a blow out.
Thanks for looking. Cheers.
P.S. The rest of the shots are here
So I shot Baseball for the first time the other day and it was absolutely miserable. Baseball is kind of boring but that wasn’t what made shooting it so miserable. It was in the mid-30’s and freaking raining which turned to snow and then back to rain. Oh and it was over 3 hours long [...]
The first and last time I shot soccer was at least 2 years ago, at the start of my education at Brooks. It was pitiful. The game was at night on a dark UCSB field. I used a 400mm lens with my 5D on a TRIPOD! WTF was I thinking. A bit naive I know. [...]

Went to the Olympic Park and shot some ski jumping. It was very frustrating because there was absolutely no light and I was trying to hand hold a 400mm lens at 1/100 of a sec in the freezing cold. Anyway, I gave up on shooting from the side or down below so I went up [...]
I felt like putting all the sports I have shot with all the other stuff wouldn’t be very good editing so this post is dedicated to some of the sport events I have covered thus far. The slideshows are seperated by sport and specific event (except football because I only shot stills for two games [...]
I know, I know. I seriously need to update my blog. And I meant to the other day but I got sidetracked with other things like finding a decent print service online and spending entirely way too long on the phone with AT&T explaining how the f’d up my bill. Anyway, I did actually compress [...]
I decided to separate the updates between sports and everything else. So far I have shot 2 football games and a Jazz basketball game. The Jazz game was really fun. I grew up watching the Jazz play so to be shooting one of their games was really exciting for me.
