So I spent 30 minutes trying to figure out how to get on this roof, and I finally did. I played with it in photoshop to make it look better than it did, I added some grain and made it contrasty because it was really ugly and boring before. Maybe it still is, you decide….

Sportraits!
We had to shoot environmental sports portraits for Bill, I couldn’t decide between these two. What do you think? The sun was about two feet from coming around the building and creating this light, but it wasn’t going to make it before sunset so I had to light it instead, I used an orange gel…
Roof Climbing and Skateboarding!
I had to climb on top of the roof of this school in Wake Forest to get this shot. Some really nice light was coming in through the trees and hitting his face right when he was coming down the rail. I had an off camera flash set up behind him on the left to…
Weekly!
Caption information is included in image. Shot on Nikon D200 with 17-35mm lens at 200 ISO and F/8.0 on Aperture Priority. Used my buddy Fill on all of them using the SB-800 off camera connected by an SC-28 cord.

1304 Bikes!
Kelly Beck, of Raleigh, NC, hopes the new Earn-a-Bike program at 1304 Bikes will bring order to the volunteer-ran community bike project in Raleigh, NC. The new program accesses each donated bike based on condition. More volunteer hours are required for bikes in better condition. After volunteering with cleaning and organizing for the given amount…
