Old Dogs, New Tricks?

Men's 60+ Division

Sunday I assisted Kelley shooting the USA Waterpolo Masters tournament in Moraga. It was a whole day of nonstop shooting (I really need to invest in those portable chairs all the guys have on the sidelines of basketball games). But it was interesting because it was a tournament for men and women who were still competitive in waterpolo outside of college. I got to watch 60+ men and 55+ women really go at it in the water. And just because they were elderly didn't mean that the playing was any less brutal, they were all pretty feisty. 

I put some of my favorites below the fold, check out the full gallery here.

Just Do It

My favorite shot of the game

Friday, May 13, I took my one and only in class final of the semester bright and early at 8am. It was also my last test of college, perhaps my life (depending on if I can make this whole photographer thing work...which I'd really like to). Most students probably went home and napped after the test, or maybe they went to Remy's for a mimosa; maybe they even went to Raleigh's and got a beer (if Raleigh's is even open at 10am). 

I drove to Stanford and shot a rugby game. I was helping Kelley Cox shoot the USA Rugby DI College Championship. I could only stay for one game, UCSB vs. Bowling Green (UCSB won). I got some great shots, and got to play around on Kelley's 7D (I'm hoping for a Canon box for graduation, fingers crossed!). It was a nice afternoon, reminding myself that this is what I want to do.
