NFL Pro Day at UGA

NFL scouts time lineman Jeff Owens running the 40-yard-dash during Pro Day at the University of Georgia on Tuesday March 16, 2010 in Athens, Ga.

Every year, scouts for all 30 NFL teams come to Georgia to evaluate all of the players that have declared for the NFL draft and push them through drills reminiscent of elementary school, well minus the bench press.

The challenge comes in making an interesting photo out of the deal.

Gymdogs Revisited.

Georgia gymnast Courtney McCool gets a hug from Hilary Mauro after she got a 9.975 on the floor exercise as Georgia beats NC State in gymnastics 196.800-193.900 at Stegeman Coliseum on Sunday, March 14, 2010 in Athens, Ga.
So i actually got to photograph Georgia's gymnastic's team once again. Second time in two years.

Senior night, home meet. Good times.

Lensbaby on Vacation

I'm getting better at focusing the lensbaby in a hurry. I'm enjoying it but after walking around Disney for 2 days with it, its a bit gimmicky. While i like the soft focus look, it can get old.

Besides since i couldnt take concert photos, i walked around Disney for two days and just worked on learning how to use the lensbaby.

More vacation photos after the jump....

MMA Fighter Brian Bowles

Here's a quick portrait of a local MMA fighter Brian Bowles. Bowles is the World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) Bantamweight Champion.

Too Much Processing?

There seems to be a trend of overprocessing & photoshopping photos to death these days. Pick up a major sports magazine and you'll see this very same overprocessed, desaturated look in their portraiture.

So naturally i wanted to see exactly how easy it was to do it. So easy it made me die inside a little as a photographer.

A quick attempt at modeling....

As i'm working on broadening my horizons photographically, I'm moving towards photographing other things, like modeling & the what not.

A couple of weeks ago, it was very foggy out, so I grabbed a friend and we went outside into the backyard and had at it.

Anatomy of a play at the plate.

A play at the plate is about as good as it gets in baseball.

Last week i watched Georgia outfielder Johnathan Taylor try for an inside-the-park home run after a giant miss-play by Stetson's outfielder.

Here's how it all went down.
