Non-football, football

Georgie Tsushima does a switch heelflip over a four-foot gap as Darren Miller rolls tape on Thursday September 2^nd outside Carver Hall on Iowa State’s campus. Tsushima and his friends took advantage of the lack of police on campus in the words of Tsushima, “The cops are all at the game, so there’s nobody to mess with us.”

A non-football football related photo.  So I’m not starting the photo blog up as a daily thing, it’s just not doable at this point in my life, however that doesn’t mean I’ve hung up my camera.  If I shoot something I like, I’ll post it.  If nothing is happening, there is no need to generate photos. 

Day 17, this isn't just a skateboard blog

Kyle Underberg kicks, sticks and lands a grab trick at the Ankeny Skate Park.

Not a flawless image, but I really did learn a lot today.  Next time I try something like this the tripod is clutch.  Having to go in and mess with masks to make an image pass isn’t worth the time when I could’ve shot it right at the start, but it happens.  I’ll get it next time. No more skate park without a tripod handy.  Also I got a little lazy with trick names, I should probably bring my laptop so I can get the information tied to the photo on the spot.  The two images below are a couple other keepers from the day.
