Lights-Camera-Action !

Diving to make the shot, Kyler Olsen, 15, of Albany, puts his heart and soul into the game at The Albany Boys and Girls Club. Playing volleyball for the Keystone Vikings is a positive and fun way for teenagers to focus and be active.

What more can I say........She is georgous!!

I took this photo of Samantha Woods in the car on the way to the volleyball game. It was just a quick focus and then "babe look" and then I took it. I was just having fun but it turned out that I really like it and it looks great in b&w. I like the expression and the closeness.

Albany's crossroads

An Albany police officer directs traffic around an accident scene at the intersection of Pacific Boulevard and Santiam Highway, just another statistic for Albany's infamous crossroads where Santiam and Pacific intersect.

I lost my dog

So.....This is quite the controversial pic.....I thought this was just a funny pic but when my wife saw it she said "that's not very nice and it is kinda offensive"...it made me think......What do you think about it??

News/Feature Photo

Oh to be 8 years old, Jakob and Emma just turned 8 and boy were they excited. In this photo (lower pic) of the birthday party 4-4-09 you can see the b-day cakes and the people enjoying the party,Pictured starting left and following clockwise are Taylor(Breezy's friend) Jakob(birthday boy) Emma (birthday girl) Linda Woods ( my mom and "MOM" to my children),Briaunna,Ezra and Ashlea, i think this is an overall decent pic but i dont understand the grainy look on the right side of the photo, This photo does tell a story, Everyone had fun at the party and it was nice being with family, The only ones missing are my Grandparents on my Mothers side, They passed this last year and we all miss them so much. As for Em and Jake yes they are twins and yes it is fun,This photo shows all of my children (Jake 8,Em 8,Breeza 9 and last but never least Ash 10).In the Top photo you can see Mema my wife's grandmother, my wife Samantha and her cousin Jennifer. Something i didnt catch before I posted was the horrendous flash glare on the mirror, guess I should have stepped to the right a little,otherwise this photo captures the laughter which is always great.

Deep Dishes

This photo was taken by my cousin and submitted to www.cruisingmackay.com i like the rims, If you look close they have a huge dish to them although i dont think they fit the car I do think they look good.I did notice that the car has a pole in the middle of it, I might have pulled the car forward a few feet to remove the pole from the shot, otherwise a decent photo.

Photo critique

Ok this photo was taken by a friend of my niece's, I thought it was kool the way the light is coming through the window and warming their faces, It is a little too much light but its still a neat photo of them having fun at the Albany Boys and Girls Club "The Club" as it is known to the kids that attend, also I think the light helps to bring focus to the subjects faces, I may also just think its a good photo because my niece "background" Angelica Lentz is in it, oh well i like it so tell me what you think.

Going to school

Well here I am after 12+ years of no school am at it again. I'm scared....sort of.......Mostly im a little unsure of myself but I think i'll be ok. So far it's really fun im learning alot and im excited about what i may accomplish, In addition to Photojournalism im taking Web developement II and Media and society. I really like the photo J class and media class. The teacher Rob Priewe really knows his stuff,plus he makes it interesting and easy to follow.

Everyone have a nice weekend

Blue Car

I like this photo mainly because I own one in BLACK. This is a good photo though because the subject is clearly the "FIJI" blue car but you also get an idea of what might have been going on around the car at the time of the photo, i think it might have been a car meet or a show and shine but really i have no idea............ hey the car is really kool!!!!
What is the make and model of the vehicle?? I know.......do you??

My Niece

I found this photo and i want to blast my oppinion to all!!!!!!

I especially like the creativeness and the focus is good but the backlighting is not that great, I would have turned around and used the lighting form the window to enhance the face, Angelica is making a cute face too, I love you Geli

BTW...The owner of this photo is unknown but it was taken at the Albany Boys and Girls Club, The Club is a great place for kids K-12th grade to grow,learn,have fun and be safe, My 4 children currently attend and they have a blast.
