My off days this week were not especially entertaining. I was originally planning on catching a game at Camden Yards here in Baltimore (since I’m only living a few blocks away) on Tuesday, but the weather was bad so I ended up going yesterday. I headed out early enough to coincidentally catch co-worker Justin Condor leaving the park from a shoot for USA Today. After we chatted for a bit I went inside and roamed around for a while. Camden has a lot of history in the MLB and in Baltimore and I was excited to visit and catch a game since I have been absent from MLB for a while now and I really miss baseball in person and on TV. My iphone has an app called AOL radio where I can stream select radio stations from anywhere in the country. The only drawback is that 740am which is the broadcaster of the Astros games isn’t on the list of channels for Houston, however 610am is which is Houston’s other good sports am channel. Its pretty awesome to be driving down a freeway in Maryland and hear Houston traffic updates. Makes me feel at home and homesick at the same time. Regardless, while I had some good light I made some images. The photo above is a neat scene I saw while walking through the outfield promenade between the park and the old B&O Warehouse which is such a iconic figure for the city and the ballpark. I just thought the light and shadows created some neat shapes. To all my Houston friends and family, stay safe! I hope Hurricane Ike turns into Hurricane Sike and heads east.

I’ve been here in Akron, Ohio for almost a week now. I have a bunch of family out here . An obligatory 2 hour trek out to Sandusky was made last Friday and it was amazing as always. Sandusky is known for two things: Being the location of Tommy Boy and a little peninsula that juts into Lake Erie. On that peninsula sits Cedar Point, one of man’s greatest achievements. If you are a roller coaster fan, or coastie as i have dubbed them (us) and you haven’t been to Cedar Point, you should go ASAP. I took my Canon G9, however Ive been having a bit of trouble with broken movie files, so until i get that issue resolved, I’ll have to stick with stills. It was an amazing day save my disappointing issues with my G9 and bad SD cards. As I was leaving the park and checking my voice mails, I received a message from the photo editor from the Patuxent Publishing Company. They want me to join them this fall in the photo department. I’m excited about that opportunity. Baltimore here I come.
