But the actual stuffs is still to come. Here's a couple pics of the gogo dancers. :)

Cycle Eastlake 2010 Favs

Ok so I took a whole bunch of pics for the Cycle Eastlake 2010 event benefiting public schools in the Eastlake, Chula Vista area. http://www.eefkids.org/about.html

"The EastLake Educational Foundation (EEF) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit foundation established in 1995 with the mission of raising funds to support the highest quality educational opportunities in the public schools within the community of EastLake in Chula Vista, California.

Since our inception, the EEF has been successful in bringing together businesses, local residents, school staff and families in support of our mission to develop and enhance technology in the classroom.

Through community support, the EEF has been able to provide over $1,000,000 to equally benefit all six EastLake public schools. Our schools include EastLake Elementary, Olympic View Elementary, Arroyo Vista Charter Elementary, Salt Creek Elementary, EastLake Middle and Eastlake High."


Anyway, these shots are my favs for certain reasons. Read on to see why!

This guy's expression is just plain awesome. He's having a great time!


This dude was just funny. He'd always try to throw up some kind of sign lol.


Look at the effort on this guy's face!


People came out with their friends and had a blast!


This guy was usually all smiley and stuff so I like how he's concentrating on this one.


And yet another guy thumbs-upping. I tend to do that a lot as well. :)


And of course my favorite of the day! This is just the perfect capture in my eyes.


So that wrapped up the 2010 Cycle Eastlake event! I hope to see you guys out on the trails again soon. Just look for a guy on an orange Fisher bike passing you up! :p

Pigskin & Strips of Vinyl

Yes, Flag football again! Woot! The main difference between this shoot and my past ones is my new 70-200 2.8L. Yum! I also had a monopod this time. Better? I like to think so. :)

The weather was overcast then it became spotty cloudy so the light was constantly changing, which sucked. But either way, pics still came out nicely. I can't wait to get on a real field! (Night tournament Osnaps!) Pics will hopefully be epic.

The 2.8L vs my old 70-300 4-5.6 was a huge difference as far as clarity. After the 100% crop, the images were still awesome despite being zoomed all the way in and wide open. When there was bokeh, it was creamier than good ol' NY cheesecake.

I hope to get a hold of a 7D to couple w/ my new lens soon! This 3fps binnis w/ my 5D is just wack...

















And I know it could be better, but this is my fav of the day!
