Friday night the drama department at school presented a Murder Mystery production. The format was a bit different so it was actually a little easier to shoot in many ways. All of the cast was not on stage, some were in the “audience” and reacted to the action on stage. This meant that the lights were left up in the auditorium and I was able to shoot with a flash. This shot was one of my favorites from the night just because I liked the expressions on the faces.
Thursday night I went to the wrestling match at school and uploaded a gallery of shots to the school site. Wrestling can be difficult to shoot since the athletes are moving pretty quickly at times. I am able to get pretty close so can choose from a number of lenses and I’m able to use a flash. This shot was pretty typical of the shots I got. Here the referee is trying to get in position to call the pin which occurred just moments after this shot.
Today was a teacher work day as we get ready for the new semester. Tonight I shot the basketball games as we hosted region rival Greenville High. We won both games and this free throw put us on top in the final period of the boys’ game.
A neighbor gave us this plant a couple of weeks ago and it has been fascinating watching it grow so rapidly, as much as a couple of inches a day. The last two days it has broken out into blooms.
