Bridge Black and White

I took this shot this morning at a walking bridge in town. Hoping to get some early commuters on foot I just waited and shot a bunch of side shots to fill the time.

The Next Big Indians

This is a shot I took for the paper's high school football tabloid. I just liked the lighting with the clouds.

Apartment Fire

This lady and her baby were trapped on the top floor of their apartment building as a basement apartment burned, filling the halls and stairways with smoke.


The fire fighter took the baby from the woman then went back to assist her out the window.

Star trails by fire light

Another photographer, Sara, and I went cruising around looking for a place to do star trails one night and once we got around the Tuttle Creek lake we noticed that on the other side of the lake there were prairie fires so we set ourselves up across the lake from them. We were worried that the fire might blow out the trails but wanted to give it a shot anyway and it ended up working out really well.

Rhino

This was taken after a tornado passed through Manhattan, KS the Summer of 2008. When I went to get this guy's information he asked if I wanted his real name or his nick name to which I answered "Real name", to which he quickly replied "I'm going to give you my nick name." He pointed to a tattoo on his arm and said "Rhino!"
