Post 706 8.16.10 The young lead singer for JC Satellite (JAKE {age13} and his 2 brothers with a 3rd young man..all under 17 years of age).. a VERY YOUNG heavy rock band that both Steve and I enjoyed a lot! They wrote and performed their own music and really had a great sound and lots of energy. I played with this shot with some of the new presets in Lightroom 3 and really liked how it came out..
Post 705 8.15.10 A little girl in the crowd at a local music festival yesterday. She was so cute..but i really thought it was funny she was out advertising for Chandler Hall which is an assisted living/nursing facility at a rock show..guess the crowd is aging quicker than i realized!
Post 704 8.14.10 A chance to photograph a local polo match. I joined a local Meetup group that is supposed to be the local SmugMug SMUG, but it really has not had much of anything to do with SmugMug which is a little disappointing, but at the same time I have had amazing opportunities to shoot events I never would have on my own. The leader of the SMUG is a free lance photographer who has given leads to shoot events as well as press passes where I would not have been able to shoot.. You may remember a high school all star football shoot I did at the Lincoln Financial Field where the Philadelphia Eagles play earlier in the summer.. Anyway, this shot was taken yesterday at a polo match.. What a neat experience..great to be in a beautiful area with a small gentle crowd of people there..most with cameras..there to enjoy the event on a reasonably cool (85* and dry degrees) about an hour drive north of us. Great fun... Ioved the action in this shot and it made me feel like I caught a photo somewhat like Andrea Kaus.. (Chaosgraphics) whose photography I am in total awe of! Sorry I have not been active on the dailies...miss you all, but life has been very busy for us..mostly good, but busy! Happy Sunday all and have a great week!!! XOXO
