Baseball on a Sunday Afternoon
My friend Mark asked me to photograph his son today. Weather was great, action good, and I was able to bring out the Bigma [50-500mm] to shoot.
More to come!
Today’s Randomness
Today was a tough day. I was ready to go, feeling very inspired, and in true belief that today would be a good shooting day……Not so much, I think. But here’s what came out of my day.
Location: Wakefield, VA
Notes: One abondoned factory, a small cemetary, and an antique and curio store…..

Picture on a Bridge
I drove home today from an event. Ok, I’ll admit it was a dog show and my puppy was entered. I was driving the 2 hours back and forth each day to take care of the dogs at home while Angela was at the hotel near the show site.
Driving home, the blasted GPS took me on some crazy route. I stopped to take these two shots on a low bridge over a swamp area. I didn’t know if I would get anything good due to the overcast skies and the overabundance of greenery…..
Ultimate Air Dogs
I went down to Brown’s Island [Richmond, VA] to photograph a ‘dock diving’ event. If you are not familiar with this, a handler and a dog are part of a team in which the dog attempts to leap as far out into a body of water as possible. The handler, often the owner, uses a variety of toys to get the most length out of his dog’s jump as possible. This event is run by Ultimate Air Dogs in conjunction with the United Kennel Club. The owner of the business, Milt Wilcox, also owns a Belgian Malinois [click to my doggy site].
Here are a few of my favorite pics – don’t forget to play the slideshow down below. Video on YouTube courtesy of Animoto.com
Virginia Tribe Slideshow
I’m finally back from vacation and I’m currently rendering the music video for the baseball team. As a matter of course, the same images that I used for the music video can be used for the slideshow. I used a different song because the pace of the slideshow tends to be slower than the music vid.
Punch and Judy…..really…..
While on vacation, I was able to photograph two beautiful Belgian Tervuren. Their names? Punch and Judy of course.
I picked a few to process quickly and the rest can be found in the eStore

ABMC Update: Images from the show site
We’ll be holding the obedience trial today. I took the time to do my own quick PhotoWalk around the grounds of this former Air Force base.
ABMC Update: Agility Vid Clip
I was able to use my iPhone to capture some video of Barb Benner running her dog in Jumpers.
Please excuse the poor video quality but the iPhone software wasn’t meant to capture a Malinois this fast! Click to view! (hopefully this works since I’m sitting in the back of my car, hooked up to my iPhone as a modem…..)
More Virginia Tribe……..
Here are a few more pics to go along with those below from the day before….. The entire two game shoot to be posted today on my eStore [click link to find where that is]
Virginia Tribe 9U Youth Baseball
I had the distinct pleasure of photographing the Virginia Tribe baseball club. It was a beautiful day in Central Virginia and I love baseball – I was in heaven. Baseball is a game that can bring about so many highs and lows in the same 30 second time span. Tempers can flare, tears can well up in the eyes, and sometimes, we forget why we are there. I saw a lot of joy and happiness. Unfortunately it was sandwiched betweens some bumps, bruises, tears and anguish. Baseball is a great game that often reflects life. This was a real treat for me.
For “sale” images will be in the eStore within a day or so.
Upcoming Ads for Premier
Premier is the United Kennel Club’s version of the AKC’s Eukanuba Tournament of Champions. All breeds’ Top Ten come to battle it out for top dog. I shot some photos for a four page spread in the event’s magazine. Here are two images that I can share of a special dog.
Rites of Spring
First of two shoots of Mr. Will. He’s an up and coming catcher for a local high school team.
The Hangover
No, no, no….not mine. I’m talking about the movie. It seems to be the new type of humor movie about the everyman who gets into various predicaments.
