It was kind of weird taking these right before vacation…not the sort of thing you want to wait around for a long time to post!!

Despite a massive pooch on my part (getting lost), I thoroughly enjoyed my 3rd year being able to take pictures @ the Dallas Cowboys 2010 Training Camp

Last year I was afforded a most generous offer of an extra VIP pass to be able to shoot from field view. This year was not AS fortunate BUT you’re also getting less view obstructions by the coaches and players. How dare they block my view!!! Now I know why all the AP photographers shoot from the other side of the field!!

I did have a lady in front of me that had “big hair”, that proved difficult from time to time since she was also sitting @ 110% in terms of posture; SIT!

Just a quick glimpse of what is to come!

Only took a few shots with the FishEye 8mm lens, but they sure covered the field now didn’t they.

The media….they are ready :)

VACATION 2010! VT & ME

Prior to leaving Austin we had some showers blow through the airport and on the way out on our way to Dallas there was some residual moisture in the air as evidenced by this rainbow. The rainbow was actually larger and more vivid but it took me a minute or so to bust out my camera! Note to self: be sure to have the camera in my lap when I have a window seat!!

Black River pictures. This time around I wanted to hit the falls from the other side of the river, not just from the path on Clinton St. Of course I took the HARD way to get there, clinging to the side of the steep bank. Thankfully I did not slip or tear myself up too bad. On the way out I found a much easier path and a road that would have taken me there! Ahhh the ‘ol hindsight.

So I was standing on the lower roof of this building (beyond the black stairs, above the missing windows on the edge). Somehow someone saw me and the owner of the building kindly asked me to leave on account of the roof being weak and unstable. It was! Thankfully it did not collapse while I was standing on it, I think that came 2.4 years later.

Not a lot of color and leaves but enough to intrigue me :)
