Given all the other stuff that I haul around, I don’t always carry one of my DSLRs. (I know, heresy …) But I always have something, usually this little Canon G9. It produces some amazing images and gives me a level of control virtually unmatched in the point and shoot realm.

UGA Football, Round 2
I was able to put my ethical lapses behind me and get to the task at hand, Georgia taking on Central Michigan Saturday afternoon in Sanford Stadium.
Gah … Someone’s Ethics are Better than Mine
Waiting in the media room for the start of the Central Michigan-Georgia game, a student asked me where I got my credential holder. Was given out at the beginning of last season, I think. He nods, looking longingly at it. Seated across from me is the director of photography from the local paper, a guy I like and trust. He confirmed it was given out last year, but said he couldn’t use it.
More Experimenting
Been playing with a tumblr page … no, I don’t have enough things to do.
So, camera-esque images here, flatbed images there.
Clever
There are days that I wish I was this clever. But, much to my family’s relief, I am not.
Slow Down Day
After spending Saturday at the game, and Saturday night trying to find my wife, we ended up wandering around downtown Decatur, Ga., for part of Sunday morning. She was at the book festival there as an invited speaker on Saturday, so I missed all the fun stuff.
One Down, Many To Go
As noted on Saturday, football season is upon us again. I’ve lined up a couple of newspapers to shoot all of the home games for again, good to keep me from getting rusty.
The big change for me this season is my switch from Nikons to Canon gear. After 19 years with the black and gold, I’ve gone red … my trusty manual focus 300 mm f/2.8 lens (that I bought, used, in 1993) has been retired at last and a (used) 400 mm f/2.8 lens now takes its place atop my 20-year-old monopod. (Geez, why am I so cheap?)
