Wilson Football LO

Photographing the game ball has been something I feel compelled to do when on the field during the football game. This shot was taking at the game this past Friday night, and I have to say that it is one of my favorite football pics this season. I liked the way the sepia really highlighted the detail of the football giving it a different sense of depth and dimension.

Lake Orion vs Royal Oak 2008

Wow, what a game! Lake Orion took charge this week against Royal Oak not allowing them to score at ALL. I had the privilege yet again to be on the sidelines photographing this event, and I must say it is a whole lot of fun. Everything was awesome from the smell of popcorn from the stands, to the smell of the players near me (ok the smell of the players I could do without.) The theme for today's game that I used when focusing my photographic eye was the words "high five." In some way I was hoping to capture those "hi fives", chest bumps, and pats on the back that occurred during the game as a form of celebration or encouragement. These shots tell that story in many forms.

This next shot is not necessarily a high five, it's an interception. It's a high-five with the football in some ways.

Sometimes you can time a shot just right. I really love how the cheerleader is in the air on as I was trying to take a shot of the lined-up cones.

There were lots of smiles at the game last night (at least if you were wearing Green and White.)

These classic car photos are some of my favorite subjects when on photo walks. There's so much character and style into these cars that makes them a lot of fun to photograph.

Fun Run

This year's fun run was quite a success. The local school raises money by having the children run laps. As they complete a lap a rubber band is given to keep count.

The Lake Orion Dragon got things started off.

Here's a quick capture of the rubber bands being awarded after a successful lap.
