Nice Light
Just a pretty scenic near Lake Anna in Spotsylvania on my way back from Louisa County High School for the last of my winter sportraits. I liked passing through the little town of Mineral as there is a tasty little barbecue shack there. Or at least there was – apparently it changed hands. So no BBQ for me but I got a nice dose of that National Geographic light you hope for when you are out and about; nice warm light from behind you, low, dark clouds ahead of you and everything pops. Sadly nobody had the decency to paddle by in a bright red canoe or anything.
Louisa road. (no Photoshop - just a little underexposed!)
Doing More With Less in Radford
I’m in Radford, VA for the annual VHSL spring sports championships. My allergies are kicking up (or I caught the swine flu), and the forecast is fairly ugly. I decided to skip trying out any remote cameras as I have had little to no success with them this season. Might as well keep it simple. Today is tennis. Tomorrow is 2 softball games and a soccer match. The best part – all 3 games start at 10 and I am on my own. A couple of years ago we would have had 2 shooters down here but not anymore. As newspaper managers across the country have said in the face of crushing layoffs, do more with less. I’ll let you know how that works out for me…
