What to do in the down time


Sitting in front of my computer yesterday talking to my girlfriend Alexis I decided to start a food photography portfolio. OK first off I have often thought about combining two of my favorite things photography and food. Here are a few of my shots from last night. I must extend a big thank you to both of my helpers from last night Holly Wells and Holland Harper. They both helped me with styling and eating of the props. I thank you and my waist line thanks you very much. I hope to add this new book to my website by the end of next month. The goodies were purchased at a local sweets shop down the road called "Pastries by Randolph".

Preakness


Yesterday I attended my first horse race.
My Aunt and I really lucked out with with getting as close to the finish line as we did. Perfect for pictures. I am including two shots from the day starting with my favorite shot of the day. It is right after Calvin Borel riding Rachel Alexandra to victory in the 134th Preakness.

The other shot is of Rachel Alexandra about to cross the finish line with no other horse in frame.

My new goal for next year is to be at the 135th Preakness with press passes and at least 2 remote cameras set up. I really like shooting sports, it is completely different than my usual day. Talk to you soon.
