Verlander at the mound.

There are times I wish I could mount a giant flash head behind home plate to get the stop in this pan just right. But in the mean time, I am amazed how quickly the ball in released and thrown and still a big giddy when I actually do get it in focus (given if my shutter speed is set to do so).

Prior to that, I worked at a few smaller papers around the state and feel like every high school state tournament is a walk down memory lane. When I'm not working, you can find me using film cameras, enjoying Michigan's outdoors (and no, that's not sarcasm), traveling or making a mess in my kitchen.
