I recently took some time to photograph the two most important women in my life.

Shooting the shoot.

Faint

Spent an afternoon noodling around with lighting yesterday. No models or subjects around, save myself.

One Photogenic PL-06 with a 16″ reflector above the camera and a 30″ square silver reflector below the camera and parallel to the floor. Upper barn door adjusted to provide gradient on background.

Been doing quite a bit of imaging using iPhone. Here’s a couple from the other day’s wandering.

A little rain followed by some sunshine, a good excuse for a walk around the neighborhood.

Mammatus Clouds Over Harvard Business School

Finished up a shoot at the Harvard Business School a couple of days ago and was greeted by this ominous looking sky, populated with mammatus clouds:

Later that evening, when I got home, the next thunderstorm kept me in my car for a few minutes as the nearly continuous lightning cracked through the sky:

While covering Class Day events yesterday at the Harvard Business School, I captured this image in Spangler Center (Spangler Hall). Today, I’m photographing the commencement exercises!

October 17, 2010: Minuteman Cycloross Race – Lancaster, MA

Russ — Fri, 22 Oct 2010 21:35:54 +0000

A gorgeous day for photographing cyclocross racing: blue sky with just the right amount of clouds, brightly colored foliage and of course lots of action. Not least of which could be found at New England’s first cyclocross flyover.

Held at the Bolton Fairgrounds in Lancaster, MA, hundreds of competitors showed up to race on the course that offered something for everybody: straight power sections, short inclines, tight twisty tuns among trees, a sand pit, mud, barriers and of course, the flyover.

The slide show above shows excerpts from the Juniors, Women, Cat 4, Cat 3 Masters (35/45+), Masters 55+ and Cat 1/2/3 heats. The only heat I didn’t get any photos of was the Cat 4 (35/45+) because I was IN that race and finished 17 in the 45+ and 36th overall.
