fire fighter series


Not everyday you get to climb a 70 foot ladder truck. We had no idea which direction the sun would be at the locations. For most of the people shots, I shot from inside the garage looking out and the subjects were in shadow. Main light camera right and a side light/ back light on camera left. For some of the ladder shots had an SB-2800 and AB as back light triggered with PW's.

This was my favorite shot from the firefighter series. This is the chiefs son who was hanging out at the fire station.

Asheville


Some shots from walking around downtown Asheville at night. Had some really good Thai food, and a good Guinness at an Irish bar. Asheville is a really happening town,it seems to be stuck in time, lots of hippies. I didn't see a Starbucks but there is a sushi restaurant on every corner. Hate to see what happens when sushi isn't the in thing ....

Kirby Derby Rain or Shine


Kirby Derby rain or shine, lets just say there was only rain ....... A really good turn out considering the weather.
