Take Our Tickets

This afternoon I shot photos for an advertisement that will run in the paper. I'm not exactly sure about all of the details, but from what I understand, if you participate in the Daily News' fantasy football contest and win, you get tickets to a Detroit Lions home game. Here is the fruit of my labor. Enjoy!

P.S. The last photo is a composite of the five above it. I think it may be the one we use on the ad.

CH-47 Chinook

A group of kids from a camp in town took a field trip today to the airport to see a CH-47 Chinook helicopter. After a quick tour, the kids went back to their bus to watch it take off. This is was my favorite. Enjoy!

Ralph Brabaw

This is 100-year-old Ralph Brabaw. We're doing a story on him for a regular column at the paper called Midland Remembers. He's a great old dude. I hope I live to be that age. Enjoy!

Duplex Fire

Staff Sgt. Timothy David

A solider from Beaverton named Timothy David died in Iraq last week. His body was returned home on Monday, and John and I covered it. This photo is of a group of Patriot Guard Riders lined up outside of the funeral home paying tribute to the fallen solider.

Carla Wallenda

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Here's a quick update. I spent the end of last week with Carla Wallenda, daughter of Karl Wallenda (if you don't know who he is, Google him). She was great, and I hope that I can spend more time with her later this summer. In addition to the photos, I did a short Soundslides piece. Check it out if you get the chance :: http://ourmidland.com/visuals/slideshow/ :: Anyway... I'm working the photo desk for Ryan next week, so I don't expect to post a lot here. However, stay tuned, there will be more to come. Enjoy!

Another Bridge

Kelly and I went up north this past weekend to Mackinaw City. We crossed the Mackinac Bridge into the UP and then we turned around and headed south to Traverse City. It was blast and much needed. Although after the past couple days, I think I need to do it again. Enjoy!

Tridge

I think some warmer weather is finally moving in. Tonight the temperature spiked and created some fog. So, for a change of pace, I decided to take a walk down to the Tridge. It was really strange and eerie out, but peaceful none the less. Enjoy!
