My life as a freelancer is evolving quickly and I am starting to develop work in new areas for myself. I will post more about that later for all you interested fans (all three of you) as things develop. For now I’m sending out my best wishes to those at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. I feel the pain of those who lost their jobs as I am still adjusting after loosing my staff job.
Here are a few photos from some assignments I shot today. I covered the Otter Open Golf Tournament which is hosted by CSU-Monterey Bay. I was lucky to catch CSUMB golfer Oscar Nystrom as he knocked his ball from a sand trap on the ninth green on Bayonet Golf Course. Sometimes the golfers wait until you have moved on before they hit it into the trap other times they dive right in!
Later in the day I covered the beginnings of festivities for St. Patrick’s Day. I was lucky enough to find a few folks who were in the spirit early in the evening at Crown and Anchor pub and the Farmer’s market in downtown Monterey. Meeting and photographing Ted Holt, 80, who wore bright green St. Patrick’s Day glasses as he shopped in the open air market, was the high point of my day.
