Extracurriculars

I’m moving my blog over to the wordpress.org domain! That means I can post SoundSlides files! (Apologies to iPad users out there…)

To kick things off, here are some color photos from the ballet spread that ran in Friday’s paper (and some that didn’t).

After I shot the first ballet rehearsal (the Peter Pan one), I was heading to the bus stop when I saw a lacrosse game going on at one of the high school fields. I’ve never shot lacrosse before, so I decided to try making some photos just for fun. It’s definitely one of the harder sports I’ve photographed (that might be because I don’t have a clue as to what the rules are—I was so confused when play moved to BEHIND the net), and I’m glad I tried it out before I ever have to do it as an actual assignment.

On Friday, I went to photograph a tennis match; the high school boys’ team had made it into the playoff bracket for the MIAA. They completely smoked their Cohasset High opponents and are moving on to the next round. Tennis was far easier to shoot than lacrosse, but, again, I haven’t shot this particular sport very much (I think the last time was junior year of college), and I hope that I get to go to the second round match so I can practice some more.
