Stagg Bowl Again!

Once again this year, Virginia Media Services will be providing photography of the game for the Old Dominion Athletic Council.  We had to miss it last year due to the gigantic freak snowstorm that blocked I-81 for most of two days, just as the Virginia Tech students were trying to get home for the holidays.  Here's a link to a photo from the game held in 2008.  The same two teams, Mount Union and UW-Whitewater, seem to end up in the championship every year, and 2010 is no exception.  Here's another action shot from the game.  Here's a small fan, and here's another sort of participant.

Weather will be cold but otherwise not too bad.  Come to the game!

VCOM Missions Poster

This photo was actually taken by one of the Virginia College of Osteopathic Medicine (VCOM) staff who traveled to Honduras to help out in the clinics. The pose was good, and the image was in focus and not too noisy, but it was pretty dark so I had to add a few lightening layers before final sharpening. I overlaid a couple of textures to focus attention and add some richness to the image before adding the text.

Local Event Photography

Local festivals are great spots to capture some interesting candid photos. These shots were taken at a local pumpkin festival in Riner, Virginia. The fall colors are great for photography.

Artisan Trails Brochure

VaMedia is providing photo-graphy for a new tourism brochure being prepared for the Virginia Artisan Trails group, to highlight the Galax/Carroll County area. Here is the photo with a link to the original. This photo is the property of Michael Miller and Virginia Media Services, and may not be used without express written permission.
