I was making my rounds around the tennis courts, when I spotted a dead ball on the side. I didn't alter the position of the tennis ball at all. I don't like to alter subjects unless they are alive. So often or not, my shots could be better by moving the subject. I make it … Continue reading The Comeback
Day 98 – Closer
This shot was accomplished after many bouts of trial and error on a decent day. My current camera's ability to capture things in motion is questionable at best. So I had to take many shots before it come out just right. I'm exploring myself by trying to analyze myself from a neutral mindset as if … Continue reading Day 98 – Closer
D97 – Choices
Took this before playing some tennis. This is my schools batting cages. This area is hardly ever cleaned. I love this shot as it is simple and combines three passions of mine: Sport, architecture, and photography. I love basketball more than tennis, however, I would have to choose tennis to pursue playing as it is … Continue reading D97 – Choices
Day 84 – Float
Caught this today on my daily walk when I looked down and the puddles as I came closer. I've taken a few shots like this before but this time the leaf is submerged into the water with the stem sticking out. Plus the sky was a beautiful blue with a good amount of clouds which … Continue reading Day 84 – Float

Will it go in or will she commit another fault? The shadows hide her face as she ponders this. Caught the ball as she was bouncing it. I felt like this shot would be better in black and white to convey doubt. The other players face is too far away, but he ponders the same … Continue reading Shadows of Doubt
Pose of Victory
A tennis player showcases how he slices the ball. When it does it, it's a pain to hit because you have to guess how the ball will land. We took a tennis class together, so I was able to see his grow from the beginning. I may edit this photo, I'm still experimenting since I … Continue reading Pose of Victory
Game of Life
Someone loses and another win. That's life but you cant lose all the time. Eventually, you'll get the W. Just keep your head up and keep going all out until you left everything on the court, field, gym, etc. Then if you lose you'll still be proud that you gave it your all. Try and … Continue reading Game of Life
Don’t defeat yourself
Don't allow yourself to quit. Sometimes all we need is a moment to breathe and calm down. Close your eyes and allow yourself that moment. When we get too angry or frustrated we end up making it worse. We have to forget and move on. Dwelling on mistakes will just cause more. The more you … Continue reading Don’t defeat yourself
Shadows on the court
Nothing like some good tennis to get your day started. I was able to take a few shows before getting some practice in. I love experimenting with shadows and lines. I wanted to show that you want the ball to be on the other side of the court. You always aim above the net not … Continue reading Shadows on the court
