I was presented with the opportunity to be a guest photographer for the drag races at the US 36 Raceway in Osborn MO.

I had the opportunity to attend a Middle School basketball game the other day. It was pretty fun, I figured I’d take my camera along with me and give sports photography a shot. I took over 700 photos but only ended up keeping about 34 or so on file. Here’s a few I liked.
If you happen to be out around the UCM campus late some night, keep your eyes open. You may get to see these guys and their art of Fire-Spinning. This really is quite a sight to see. Shawn (photos 1 & 3) has been spinning fire for awhile now, and Caleb (photo 2) has just started spinning recently. [...]
So I went out to this skate park one Saturday in October and shot some of there skateboarders. Most of them weren’t very bad at all, but I wouldn’t consider them pros yet.
