I am at the NYS School Swimming Championship this weekend, watching my kiddo and photographing some great swimming for the local paper. Here’s one of my favorite swimmers, the great Ricky Henahan.

It’s a strange time of the year for me. I switch from being a portrait photographer to being a sports photographer for a brief month or two. As the winter swim season comes to an end, I hope you’ll let me indulge in a few photos from the league championship. More to follow, as I cover the NYS championship and Speedo Sectionals over the next two weekends.
All who know me know that I am only comfortable behind the camera. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve tried to do a self portrait without luck. This morning, with only five minutes to spare, I gave it another shot. Actually, four shots. With the self-timer, running back and fourth. So here I am, my most challenging subject, with a little peak at the brick wall emerging in the studio. Yes, I’m going to have a whole wall of worn brick in the studio before the Class of 2009 senior season starts.
Please pardon my silence. I’ve been busy working on some new exciting materials and photographing a lot of swimming. I’ll share more on both those fronts in the coming days.
For now, you are stuck with me.
