eScapes Photo's photostream  

Holy cow - I forgot to post this to my stream. Oh sure - I put it in the Peoria Flickr group but I didn't put it here... so here it is.

I'm so late that the Sports Shooting Workshop is already underway or finished by the time you're gonna see this... but we've got four other springy workshops... so run with it if you're interested.

To see it for realz, you can head over to the real document.

See it larger.

Had a four-page spread featuring photography of the Marquette Group - an international marketing organization based out of Peoria. I photographed both Eric Webb (the President) and Chris Cummings (the CEO) as well as numerous shots around their newly-minted and very bright office paint/rebranding. Nice guys - and an interesting twist as Eric Webb was 6'-7" tall and the ceilings weren't much taller.

I have a couple of interesting shoots coming up for iBi that should be a lotta fun - stay tuned in the next few weeks for that. As per usual - a shout out to managing editor Jon Wright and graphic artist Michelle Gray for being a great team.

She's a hoot...

Kev and I ended up with a few moments to hit the Peoria Push Derby bout last night and I did something I'm not doing much of lately - shot something just for the fun of it... Amazing.

Only processed a small handful - and I enjoyed this action shot of Machete Crocker (350) - who jammed like crazy last night - getting through the line.

Peoria Progress is just published twice a year by Peoria Magazines. My shot of the Peoria skyline graces the first half of 2012's leading page. Shot from the Fondulac Bridge over I-74 in April of 2010 - with Ms. Stacy Hanna shooting alongside me - and both of us trying not to get hit by cars on a dark night - and trying to avoid the bridge shake every time a car drove by us. This was a 30 second exposure at a whopping f/36. Sometimes that just what it takes...

Thanks again to the folks at Peoria Magazines, including editor Jon Wright and graphic artist Michelle Bowers Gray.

The original shot is here.
