As the Toledo Walleye season is quickly winding down, my creativity seems is just now firing on all cylinders.
On Saturday night Walleye players were wearing Toledo Blades throwback uniforms in honor of the first annual alumni game that took place on Sunday.
I have recently being doing a lot of work for Metroparks Toledo Area, shooting features of different parks, capturing programs that aren’t very well known for promotional purposes. I get to see the behind the scenes of how the Metroparks are run on a day to day basis by staff and volunteers.
A couple of times a month the Metroparks hold a photography workshop; all the public a chance to get up close and personal with nature animals.
I have been an iPhone owner since June 2007 when I waited in line at the AT&T store to get the original iPhone for $700. Ever since then, every model of camera has improved dramatically. Now the iPhone 5 has one of the best cameras I have seen on a mobile phone. The quality and the colors are fantastic! I don’t even have to own point and shoot camera!
The 2012 World Series finally arrived in Detroit. I haven’t done a lot of baseball this year, but I was fortunate enough to cover the NLDS in Cincinnati and now the World Series. For game three I arrived around 3:00pm to find parking, pick up credentials and get all set up.
The Toledo Walleye opened their season on October 13. I worked with the Walleye marketing staff to make some awesome images of the fans waving glow sticks that were handed out to all fans when arrived at the arena.
The Toledo Musuem of Art is currently showing off the acclaimed French artist Edouard Manet, sometimes referred to as “the father of Impressionism.”
The exhibition is co-organized by TMA and the Royal Academy of Arts, London, where the show will open in late January after its run in the U.S.
A contemporary of the Impressionists, Manet (1832–1883) was the most stylish of the 19th–century French painters and a major recorder of Parisian life at that time. The exhibition is the first in depth examination of his considerable talents as a portraitist. Manet painted his family, friends and the literary, political and artistic figures of his day, often in casual settings rather than traditionally posed portraits. His subjects come to life on canvas, making the viewer curious to know more about these people and their lives.
Living in northwest Ohio my whole life, I have seen some really great sunsets. Sometimes I have my camera to capture them and sometimes I don’t. There are a few schools in the area that have some of the best sunsets behind a sports field.
