Still here....for now

Waiting for Mitt.......

Q: What do Mitt Romney, Gloria Steinem, and Paris Hilton all have in common?

A: They all have great hair.......and for some reason they all managed to find themselves in front of my lens in a 24 hour period.
This job really makes me laugh sometimes. I would post photos of each, but really who cares. Here is a random sampling of photos I like.


(020408 Boston, MA)Boston University sophomore goalie Brett Bennett watches the puck after it bounced off of his facemask in the third period against Boston College in game two of the 2008 Beanpot on Monday February 4, 2008 at the TD Banknorth Garden.

Farmusa was first in line for the event and had been there since 3 AM.


Old friends of George Parelli, from left, Bill Reilly his wife Jean Reilly both of Roslindale and Charles Anastasia of West Roxbury tell stories in a corner booth of the Pleasant Cafe on Washington Street on Sunday February 17, 2008. The trio who have known George for over fifty years were at the Cafe to celebrate George's retirement after working there for seventy years.

Plenty more where that came from but that is just a few that I enjoyed. I have just been approved to submit to a new stock photography website run by PhotoShelter. It's called the PhotoShelter Collection. I hope to have a lot of stuff up there in the near future so have a look:

New Hampshire

Democratic candidate for president Senator Barack Obama (D-IL) speaks to the crowd during a campaign stop at the Concord High School gymnasium in Concord, New Hampshire on January 7, 2008.


Spent two glorious days in New Hampshire trying to photograph as many of the presidential candidates as possible for UPI. Monday was a long day shooting, filing, driving, shooting, filing, driving...etc.. Tuesday was pretty slow, just a bit of a waiting game. Had fun got some nice photos met some nice people. Christine came up with me to shoot for herself a bit and managed to pick up a freelance job covering the Hillary party Tuesday.

I have posted a few pics on my sportsshooter page so
click here to see them.
