The Back Alley

It's been a while since we've posted. We been shooting lots of basketball games, but hadn't done much of anything else.

This image is the result of watching for interesting light and having the camera close at hand.

This is the backside of a business block of a town in Kansas. Most places this is the drab side of the block, but these owners have made the back visually interesting. Enjoy!

Favorite Images of 2011

Year's end brings the realization that there are a number of chores that need completion. One of my more rewarding tasks of the past few weeks was reviewing the images taken during 2011, completing the registrations and backups, etc.

A lot of sub-par images went into the recycle bin, but I greatly enjoyed rediscovering those photos that were the successes for the year and remembering the adventures that they represented.

These are not displayed in any particular order. They are here for your enjoyment.

Happy New Year !! May you all have a productive and enjoyable 2012

Bulldog Basketball

It has been a busy season here in the early winter. I haven't been outdoors to do much shooting, and the weather hasn't been cooperative either. But I have enjoyed following the McPherson College Men's Basketball team.

These images are some of my favorites from the four games we've been able to attend:


Sr. G Aaron Frasier (1) and Sr. F Jordan Crawford (23) rebound against Hastings College

Jr. G Adam Bruner (24) and So. F Joey Powers (13) defend against Hastings

Jordan Crawford meets the ball handler against Tabor College

So. G Samson Shivers (15) drives against Univ. of St. Mary

Aaron Frasier soars to the basket against USM

Fr. G Kenny Berry, Jr. (12) handles the ball out front versus Rockhurst Univ.

Samson Shivers takes it to the basket against Rockhurst

The Hastings game was shot with the D90. The other games were shot with the D7000. All images are taken with the Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8, processing in ACR and CS5.
