Flash

I had to photograph Relay for Life today and I looked for something for the newspaper but also decide to play around with flash. I haven't used flash in quite some time and I enjoy using it when I can do it just right. I like the photo with the girl, umbrella, and balloon for some reason. It's quirky.

I also got to talk with a cancer survivor who plays paintball and I might get to go paintballing with him and some of his friends, I hope I don't shot my eye off.

swim meet


I'm trying to accomplish two things during my time in Midland, clean backgrounds and organized chaos. I love photographs that have everything in just the right spot. I'm not there yet but crowded events like swim meets are prefect places to practice.

Backyard Swimming

I met up with Michael and his family this evening and really wished I could've jumped into the pool too. I'm trying to show more of what Michael is feeling. I'm trying to put myself in his shoes to give each photo the sensation of what it's like to be him, to enjoy certain things more than others, and to have difficulties communicating because Michael still has spoken a single word.

I couldn't decide which photo I liked best.
