An Aesthetic TIP For More Dramatic Sports Images

Here is one technique you won’t learn from your professors, adjuncts or teaching assistants, let alone a high school journalism teacher I know. If I am wrong, sound off!

Many of the old techniques are still responsible for great images today, whether a young photographer realizes where they came from – OR NOT.

There have always been plenty of photojournalists, all around me at these games, who know about this technique (WATCH THE VIDEO), but for various reasons didn’t use it, or used it very infrequently. I just couldn’t see shooting any other way.

Thanks for watching and reading. More photography tips and techniques will come soon. I am enjoying the showing and sharing I have been known for for many years in my fly fishing life.

I have been thinking about this one for a very long time, and the concept may change and it may fall flat, but make no mistake – IT IS REAL.

I want to take my own journey back and forth in time, and bring anyone interested along for the ride. I think it is time. It is time to get so much out of the past, take one last look and throw it in the fire.

And that is exactly what I hope to have the time to do. I have a bit of experience in the YouTube world, and although it is NOW in a state of constant change, I am doing a fair job of keeping up – as we approach the quarter-point of the 21st. Century.

What I hope to do is just tell stories, my stories. Stories related to an unremarkable life in photography, the people I knew, worked with, and a few I wish I had never met. Yes, I will drop those names. I would love anyone who does a “search” to find the memories I have – for what they’re worth … not much.

Read the video description if this self exposure, intrigues you. This journey, should it take root in my daily planning and execution, will go back to the middle of the 1980’s, and even take a brief sprint back to the 1970’s if you stay tuned long enough.

In conceiving this project, that I expect not to end anytime soon, I started thinking about the chronology of how to tell it. My mind labored at the idea of that thought – start now and go back, start at the beginning and go forward?

I decided to take the memories as they come, and try to get them down on video before they go.
