Fall Brings Shutdowns?
This last year has brought troubling times for our country. Regardless of party affiliation we have seen hardships for businesses and artists all around the country. Schools have been closed for going on nine months. COVID has sent us into a spiral we just don’t seem to be climbing out of. As we head into fall and winter we seem to be told that COVID is leading us back into possibly more shutdowns. Just as we near the possibility of sports starting up for the winter sports seasons, the signs of spikes in COVID threaten to end it all. I have little confidence as we enter November that I will be shooting sports before the start of the new year. I also don’t see the new year starting any better than we are ending this year, but hope is all I have to keep me in any sort of positive frame of mind. I have built my brand on sports and music events. The last few months have lead me into other areas of photography. While not as fulfilling, in an artistic way, as sports and live music it has allowed me an outlet for my passion of photography. As we near the end of the year I will challenge myself to find ways to continue to fulfill my desire to shoot. My love will always be sports action and live music but I fully understand that my focus may take a road not intended in the months ahead. I am currently and will always seek out opportunities to shoot events that drive me artistically.
