I shot and edited this piece in 24 hours, from Wednesday morning to Thursday morning. It's not the way I would prefer to do it, but it is nice to know that I can manage a decent piece in a short time frame.

Baseball and Softball
I shot baseball and softball for The Herald this weekend, and got the opportunity to improve on my sports shooting some. It was also a welcome break from video to shoot stills.

First Video
Our first assignment for my video class this semester was to illustrate a journey. So here it is, a fun piece about a man encountering a box.

Thinking Graphically
I have always photographed moments first composition second, but the combination of not working for a paper right now and taking a video class has me thinking more about the graphic nature of my photos. So here's a couple I've taken this semester. Hopefully by the end of the semester I'll be able to take some graphic photos with moments in them too.

Best of 2011
I've been seeing a lot of "best of 2011" photos a lot lately, and if there's too things I love it's blog posts and bandwagoning. Just kidding. On a serious note 2011 was a big year for me. My confidence and ability with my camera grew a lot between picture stories, my favorite class, and The Flint Journal, my favorite internship so far. I had the opportunity to experience a lot of things that helped me understand the world around me as well as myself this year. So here they are, in chronological order, my favorite photos from 2011. Here's to improvement in 2012

The Last Flint Photos
I took these photos in my last few weeks at The Flint Journal. I've had them picked out for this post for over a week but for some reason I felt like I should post them from Virginia. My time in Flint was great. I had fun and grew a lot, and I'm thankful for the people who helped me along in my time there. These probably aren't my best photos from Flint but I hope that I'm better now than when I started at the Journal.
