2010 Goal: Shooting tighter.

One of the things that I've been working on at sporting events is shooting a lot tighter instead of looser. This way I have less cropping to do in post production and I'm able to meet my deadlines with less frustration. Also the added benefit is that when I need to do enlargements say past 8x10 I don't lose any quality.

Recently I shot the 103rd Millrose Games at MSG in NYC. I decided to bring my canon Ef 400 f/2.8. My goal in was to shoot tighter so I can get some great bokeh that you often times don't get when composing your shot loosley. I also took along my my 135 f/2.0 which gives me enough reach to get some finished lines and jubilation shots.

Sorry I haven't been writing regularly. Over the last 3 weeks I was called upon to provide coverage for high school sports here in NYC for the New York Post it's an awesome journey so far being that I love shooting sports no matter the level.
I thank God wholly for the opportunities that have come my way. Also my wife Farah played a huge role in this as well because about 2 months ago I was going to give up on shooting since finding work as photojournalist is a daunting task and she said to "stick with it and keep you're skills sharp." It's one of those rare moments that I actually did pay attention to what she says :) But again I thank god for giving me the ability to share how I see moments unfold with a huge audience. And for blessing me with the persistence to believe in what I do as a professional. I thank god for blessing with wonderful and highly supportive wife.
