Down Day

Hey,
Long time no blog post. I have had a bit of a rough sequence with the camera. I had been taking a plethora of photos with my 35mm film camera for my Photo 1 class which I grew to have a strong disliking for...no...hate for. So to say the least I needed a break from photos for a couple weeks. Then on December 5th I had the privilege of breaking my tibial plateau in my knee spinning off a rail and landing wrong which needed surgery with 5 screws connected to a large plate, an knee scope, and a cadaver skin graft to cover the incision. Crutches are not the ideal way of taking photos, hence the hiatus of photo blogging.

Anyways today I finally got to get out with my new Tamron 10-24mm 3.5/4.5f wide angle lens I recently acquired. My buddy Alex Bayer, teen sensation and star of previous blog posts, has been receiving some gear from Gnu Snowboards and needed some shots of him hitting the halfpipe at Copper Mountain Resort. However, due to the recent snowfall and winds picking up a myriad of snow into the air, the day was cut short and I ended up with only a few lifestyle shots. I guess that is how it goes sometimes being a snow sports photographer. We will have to wait for another day. Below is a snap shot of the X-Rays from my leg and the shots from today. Enjoy and the blog posts should be a more frequent thing now that I am mobile. Thanks!
