WGA strike opinion, Cut the Crap

Okay here is my stand on this stupidity. The majority of writers for television shows and movies make handsome profits. Look at the woman who wrote the Harry Potter books. She was on welfare, and now she is a multi-millionaire! Ok she is a novelist not a screenplay writer, but you should get my [...]

Senator Craig is GAY

Ok you big homo, quit being a liar while you stand next to your fat hillbilly wife.  Its time for you to admit what you did.  You hired male escorts, you sucked cawk in bathrooms, and you are pathetic.  You are the reason that men in this country cannot be comfortable with their sexuality.  [...]

End the War

(Luis Sinco/Los Angeles Times)

I usually am not a political type, but since I am a photographer, I do keep an eye on the news.  And I was particularly moved by the above photograph.  It shows the anguish of being in a war. It shows much more than that.  Study his appearance and you [...]

A word about Senator Craig

Okay this guy is getting way too much media coverage. First, its time for people in powerful positions to stand up and say they have sexual differences. Do not be ashamed, put down the damn bible and stand up for your rights. Its 2007 and time to change the way we look at this [...]

I had an assignment to shoot a sporting event. So since I have not done this before, I decided it would be best to go to a college game with easier access. I actually had a good time and learned a little about shooting this type of event.  Since it was outdoors in sunlight, I did not have to be too concerned about lighting problems as would have been the case for indoor sports.  I want to try a swimming meet next time.  I think I got some fun shots. Have a look.
