On a family vacation to Cambridge, MA, while carrying around my wife’s camera, I snapped a few photos of my daughter playing in the park. I didn’t think much about it at the time. So, I’m pleasantly surprised and honored that one of the images became the cover photo for a 2014 reissue of James Paul Gee‘s The Social Mind.
This was a “change of pace” for me, capturing images with a point-and-shoot camera, from the audience, when Vampire Weekend came to town…

For the first time since 2000 in Sacramento, I will not be attending the U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Track & Field. I still love capturing images, just a little closer to home. I hope you track and field fans enjoy these images as much as I do. Happy Birthday, Ninabear!

I had a bit of a ‘vacation’ from photographing track meets this summer, due to the birth of my daughter, Nina. However, I haven’t completely put away my camera. Having a child has provided an opportunity to take photos of people who aren’t running, jumping, or throwing for competition. This set was taken a couple days before my daughter turned four months old…

It’s hard to beat the great weather, intimate stadiums and casual atmosphere of Cactus League Spring Training in the Valley of the Sun.

After processing hundreds of track and field images from the USA Outdoor Championships, I looked forward to experimenting with different photographic techniques while shooting the Independence Day celebration at Tempe Town Lake.

The inaugural Ragnar Relay Los Angeles had its share of first year growing pains. On the day before the start, participants were informed that Leg 4 was canceled due to safety concerns, and Legs 13-18 were canceled due to permitting issues with the City of Malibu. Once the race got underway, I felt that course markings were confusing or ambiguous in some areas. The post-race setup felt rather low-key compared to the Ragnar Relay Del Sol in Arizona… no live band, and a minimal beer garden. The overall experience felt more chaotic than other road relays I’ve done.
On the other hand, it’s hard to beat running on the strand through Venice Beach at midnight. Moreover, the primary reason for running a road relay is to bond with one’s teammates. In those respects, I believe most participants had an amazing experience!

From 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM on February 27, waves of teams departed from Watson Lake Park in Prescott, AZ, as participants in the 2009 Ragnar Relay Del Sol. This year’s route meandered 202 miles from Prescott through Wickenburg, Carefree, and Fountain Hills, before finishing in Mesa Riverview Park.

I recently had an opportunity to experiment with taking product photos for a friend’s Web site. We set up a makeshift tabletop studio, using household lights and ordinary materials. Taking pictures in a studio environment was an entertaining and educational change of pace. What a novel concept, capturing images of stationary subjects!

Watching the activity in a Major League Baseball bullpen is fascinating. Here are a few images from a recent Arizona Diamondbacks game…
