The Other Team
Got this pic of the opposing team's shortstop at the RedWolves game against the Wilmington Sharks at American Legion Field in Florence on Thursday, July 3, 2008. Unfortunately the team doesn't have numbers on the fronts of their jerseys so I don't know his name!

American Legion BaseballI got this shot during Florence's game against Camden last night and they couldn't use it in the paper, so I thought I would share it here!
Florence second baseman Keith Branco (3), a senior at Wilson High School, maintains control of the ball and regains his balance after tagging out Camden's Stephen Boneparte (3), from Lugoff-Elgin High School, during the South Carolina American Legion game at American Legion Field in Florence on Wednesday, June 18, 2008.

Blinded
While taking pictures of Florence County Probate Judge W. Kenneth Eaton today, I loved the way the light filtered through the blinds so I took a couple of shots. The color of the filtered light looks even better than it did in person.

Sunset
As I was leaving the RedWolves game tonight, the sun was neon pink! I had to underexpose the photo a bit in order to share the beautiful colors with those of you who might have missed it!

More from BC!!Here are some more pics of beautiful British Columbia. We had lunch and then took a drive through some of coastal communities.
A couple sits in a big, blue chair on top of a huge rock at the edge of Gonzales Bay, a spot that overlooks the bay and the view of the mountains in Washington state's Olympic National Park.
Another view from the bay. We couldn't have asked for more beautiful weather for our trip!
Dozens of driftwood logs bleached from the sun and riddled with worm holes were washed up on the beach. I loved this view with the picnic table in the background.
Me and my sis in the car!
British Columbia
My family and I have recently convened on Vancouver Island, British Columbia in Canada for my grandmother's 80th birthday. Arriving separately on three different flights in Seattle, we rented a car and drove to catch the BC Ferry from Tsawwassen to Victoria. On the hour and a half ride I got some amazing photographs. These are a few of my favorites.
A sailboat passes through a patch of sunlight on the water as the sun peeks out from behind scattered clouds.
This is the view from the front of our ferry as we pass between two islands.
One of the many beautiful waterfront homes we passed along the way, I couldn't resist this one because of the lighthouse.
Just a shot of the parking level of the ferry. I wish I would have gotten more photos of the ferry itself. I plan to spend a bit more time inside on my 6am return trip next Tuesday and will hopefully have some more shots for you!

Baseball is back!!!Thank goodness baseball is back. I got to spend a couple of hours snapping pictures of the 2008 RedWolves interacting with each other and their fans during Media Day at American Legion Field in Florence on Tuesday, May 27, 2008. These were some of my favorite photos from the shoot. The season starts Thursday with a home opener, so get to the ballpark and cheer on the RedWolves!
Members of the 2008 RedWolves add their autographs to several baseballs.
The setting sun almost silhouettes Rob Kumbatovic (35) as he autographs a baseball.
Tyler Bocks, 5, of Florence winds his way through the RedWolves as fans take to the field to meet their team.

Black and White
While shooting an assignment today on 20-year-old Jay Graves whose brother and sister performed life-saving CPR when his heart stopped while on a visit home during a break from school, I caught this photo of his face illuminated in the light from a nearby window. In color the photo did not look nearly as dramatic.

Memorial Day
A future photographer! This young boy was dressed head to toe in a sailor's uniform and was snapping pictures of the bagpiper during today's Memorial Day Observance at the Florence National Cemetery. I forget to get his name after the cemetery was over and I could just kick myself for it.
The wind was not cooperating with the SFHS NJROTC as they posted the colors at today's Memorial Day Observance at the Florence National Cemetery. The flag blew around NJROTC Senior Chief Petty Officer Jackie Fancote and I loved the picture that resulted!

Galivants Ferry StumpI went out to the Galivants Ferry Stump this afternoon to take pictures for the paper. I got some really great images! Enjoy!
We didn't have room for this photo in the paper, but I really love the moment. This little boy was fascinated with the donkey. Brooks Foxworth, 8, of Myrtle Beach pets Andy the donkey during the Galivants Ferry Democratic Stump on Monday, May 12, 2008.
I worked this photo for about thirty minutes. I wanted a shot of this lady, but it never quite worked out that I got a photo that would have read well in the paper. I got a picture of another lady that worked much better in the paper. Bumper stickers an picket signs decorate a lattice fence as Nancy Anderson of Conway waves to a friend from the Horry County Democratic Party table during the Galivants Ferry Democratic Stump on Monday, May 12, 2008.
I turned this photo in, but they might not have room for it, so I posted it here just in case! David Smith plays the banjo and William White plays the mandolin as they perform with The Red White Family out of Conway during the Galivants Ferry Democratic Stump on Monday, May 12, 2008.
