Colorado Springs Trip: day 2

The second day of our trip we slept in late, then headed to Denver for the Cherry Blossom Festival.


There, Arielle decided it would be cool to eat yellow snow.




On the way back, Arielle watches as the world ends.

Colorado Springs Trip: day 1

We took a break form packing and headed up to Colorado Springs to visit some friends for the weekend. After driving all night Friday, we were pretty wiped on Saturday. So we decided to take it easy and go to the lake for some sun and relaxation.

Clovis News-Journal: The Big Boys Rodeo

Well almost. Before the rodeo they help the rodeo encounter. It was for non rodeo kids to get a taste of what it's like to do rodeo events. This was followed by the pro rodeo. It was kind of weird shooting this, since it felt exactly the same as it did last year. Pretty much everything, including the jokes from the rodeo clown, was the same. I felt like I did a good job of not getting the same photos as I did last year. It was partly because I see differently than I did last year. It's interesting to shoot the same event in back to back years. It kind of makes you reflect on the past year as a photographer.

Clovis News-Journal: Little Buckaroo Rodeo

Last week was rodeo week. It was kicked off by the Little Buckaroo Rodeo. Now the Little Buckaroo Rodeo differs from the Junior Rodeo. The Junior Rodeo is like the real Rodeo just with kids 8-18. They do the same events but use steers and calves instead of bulls and broncs.The Little Buckaroo Rodeo is for kids 4-12. The events are more geared towards little kids and are rodeo inspired.





New Mexico Sky: coming back from Rodeo year 2

I finished shooting the Little Buckaroo Rodeo and headed back to the office. As I was crossing the famous Prince St. overpass I started firing away.

Clovis News-Journal: Features

Here are a couple of features from the past couple weeks. I feel like I'm starting to come out of a creative lull. I'm producing about 1-2 photos I like a week. I consider this to be about average.

The first one is from the carnival that came to town a couple weeks ago. The last one is a biker event last Saturday.

Photo of the Day

No, it wasn't taken by a Abq Trib photographer. It was taken by Oded Balilty for the Associated Press, but it did run in the Trib.
