Another night of college football in the books. I was up in Mt. Pleasant Michigan covering Toledo vs. Central Michigan. I left for the game at 1pm with team videographer and University of Toledo College Republican President Matt Rubin along with Adam Junga. It was a fun yet boring car ride but once we arrived at the stadium it was time to get to work.

As soon as we got out of the car Central Michigan was walking through the fans and I got a photo of star quarterback Dan LeFevour.

I headed into the stadium and since no one was in the stadium it made for nice overall photos of Kelly/Short stadium.

Last weekend I was down in Cincinnati to cover the Connecticut Huskies vs. the Cincinnati Bearcats. It was the ESPN ABC prime time game which meant it was on 8 pm and anytime you are shooting a prime time game the atmosphere in the stadium is awesome.

Once all set up I walking around the stadium and I saw ESPN personality Kirk Herbstreit reporting from the sidelines.

Wednesday of last week I was trying to decide what game to cover. I had the following games to choose from: Cincinnati at Syracuse, Penn State at Northwestern or Michigan at Illinois. I choose Michigan Illinois because both of the teams have been struggling this year and when two struggling teams play one another its usually a decent game and I am right.

Last weekend I was back in Cleveland covering the horrible Browns. For some reason I find joy in shooting losing teams, not sure why I just do! Between the Lions and the Browns I got it covered in the NFL this year.

It was a pretty good game as far as action and a good variety of photos. Here are the 24  of my favorite images from the game. If you would like to know anything about the photos please leave a comment and I will be sure to get back to you. I have a lot going on right now and I don’t have as much time to have long detailed posts like I have done in the past.

Last weekend was crazy busy for me, but I was able to survive. On Saturday I had to shoot two news assignments of Wild Life Appreciation day before the Central Michigan vs. Bowling Green at 1 pm. I got to the stadium about 20 minutes before the game started and wasn’t able to get many stock photos.
