Endings

It's the end of summer and near the end of my tenure at the Camera. What a better time to cover a fair? Fairs are always a tricky situation to shoot. Sometimes there are easy photos to be made and at times there seems to be so much going on yet nothing really interesting to photograph. Lots of times the photos just all look the same despite being from different times of year and locations.

So today my challenge was to shoot something that I've seen five times in a different way. Not too sure I succeeded, but still feel like I made a couple fun frames.

Well, tomorrow it's the Showdown. CU versus CSU. I've got high expectations for myself tomorrow. I'll share what I come up with after.

More from the DNC

It's been a wild ride the last couple days. Here's a few more frames from the DNC.

Too busy to post individual pix so here's a link to a slideshow of the better images.

Fall Sports and Feature Hunting

It's that time of year when the evenings are crisp and there's a pig flying. Well, part of a pig anyway. It's fall and prep football is here. As is CU women's soccer. The problem with the game tonight was that the team I was covering didn't have a full roster. They only hand-wrote the starting offense and defense on a sheet for me to shoot a photo of. Spacing it out about five minutes later, I started banging off frames in this spectacular golden hour light.



The real problem arose when I had three photos that I wanted to turn in and had no way of identifying the players from the local team. Thus I was forced to turn in what are essentially trading card photos. Just a photo of one of the guys on the team in a simple frame and possibly bland moment. So the others will slowly die on the cutting room floor of my mind. And as a result you get to look at a couple other frames from the past 26 and one half hours.

Enjoy
