CROSS COUNTRY
l’ll admit here that I know OF the sport of cross country, but really have not shot it until coming up here to PPC. I shot one quick race for the first time a few weeks ago that was a little hairy as I did not know how everything was set up. Its also pretty [...]
THE GREAT SLOT DEBATE
Its been a while since I’ve posted on this (primary) blog. My music reviews/photos have re-spawned into a new blog called http://whatdoyoumeanimnotonthelist.blogspot.com and given the frequency of live music I’ve witnessed in the past few weeks, that blog has seen more action. It’s mostly a me thing, but hey if I can serve a purpose [...]
LIVE MUSIC FUN
I’m totally on a blogging spree today. Tonight my boy Stef aka P.O.S. came to town with Saosin and Underoath and another hokey new metal band that all the kids like. Stef is a hip-hop artist and it’s always lovely to see him open for punk/metal acts. All of the 15-18 year old kids smashed [...]
PUMPKINS
Since the lady leaves tomorrow for Houston, we decided to pick up a few pumpkins at the Fells Point Safeway. I feel guilty buying them from Safeway given the fact that I’ve covered countless events at local farms that feature fresh pumpkin patches, but I like to think I just bought them from the retailer [...]
BOORNY
Yesterday’s 7am assignment was definitely one of my most interesting yet. I was sent out to Hydes, Maryland which is situated deep in the northern Maryland hills, making the drive exciting on its own. Boorny Vineyards, a local winery, was in the middle of a harvest and I was to make some images for a story. I [...]
POLAROIDS & PINS
It’s about lunch time here in Maryland and I have a bit of time before shooting my first girls field hockey game. I’ve shot a ton of different sports, but never this one so we’ll see how that goes. I purchased this vintage Polaroid Colorpack III that was brand new and still in the box [...]
BITTERSWEET
The past few days have been decent I suppose. I’ve done a number of high school sporting events lately and a ton of other stuff as well. Last night I was up for the better (and worst) part of the night monitoring the situation with Hurricane Ike and Houston from here in Baltimore. How amazing [...]
OH DEERE!
Today was definitely a lot better than yesterday’s storm flop. My first assignment to cover a tractor and steam engine festival way out in Westminster went off without a hitch. It was a gorgeous day in Maryland and the festival was a bit overwhelming, but I think I made some nice images. This was another [...]
HANNA HOLD ON
I’m actually listening to The Get Up Kids song named “Hannah Hold On” right now. I thought it was fitting as I was very excited to have Hanna’s might serve as a gateway to some nice moments, images, and maybe more, but alas she was but a fake as I suspected. Last night in the [...]
PPC FIRST WEEK
So yesterday was the magically Internet hook-up day for me at my new Baltimore City place. It was a long time coming as life is frustrating when you are in a new place, away from friends and family, without Internet. Ive been working at Patuxent Publishing Company for a week now and it has been a ride so [...]
