MU versus SLU
The smell of fresh cut green grass, the crack of the bat...its baseball season once again kids
MU blasted SLU 19-6 at Busch Stadium on April 1, 2009. Awesome game. Got to sit in dugout. Sat in Mike Shannon's Broadcast spot. Lounge in Bernie's oversized chair...it was great.

Dyers
First edit of my project on the Dyers, a simple family living near Fredericktown, MO. Herb and Deb Dyer have two sons, Caleb (27) and Travis (17). Caleb married last year to Tina, 20. This May they are expecting their first kid, in which they will be doing a home birth. I have captions so read up for more.
Still not sure on a storyline here. Currently going through my couple hours of audio. LEAVE COMMENTS!!

Meet Charles
Just off Providence south of the glorious Mizzou stadiums and training facilities is where you can find Charles. Instead of having a day-to-day job or a regular house a chooses to spend his time in the woods. Quite a cool guy talked my ear off for around 3 hours. Interested in spending more time with him. He is a great subject that never looks at the camera and totally disregarded that I was there. He lives with Bob, a guy who Charles says is a drunk and is messed up in the head. Charles thinks it is hilarious that he calls himself a mountain man living out here even though they live literally a stones throw from the highway and Stoney Creek Inn.

abq...day three
on central ave. (route 66) there is the Man's Hat Shop. This place has been around since 1946 and can outfit anyone with a great cowboy hat. The owner's father even supplied the first marlboro man with a hat.
The Man's Hat Shop - Albuquerque, NM
Bill Sisk helps out a customize with a gift certificate she was giving to her husband. She wasnt sure on what hat size he wanted and Sisk just suggested he come in and get fitted personally by himself.
French photographer Joel Halioua tries out a cowboy hat for a potential purchase. Joel was in town for the NANPA conference such as I was but upon entering the store I just thought he was another crazy european tourist. Little did I know he is one of the "in" guys for photographers in Europe. We exchanged cards. Hopefully he sees this post soon.
Quite a character Joel is as he jokes with his friend John.
Bill Sisk checks out Joel.
Stacks of hats fill the store.
I am hoping to shoot more tomorrow...we will see.

critter control
I followed around Peter Riney Tuesday afternoon and made some pictures. Im hoping to go out with him again soon as he continues his quest to rid of unwanted critters.
Peter looks upon the job at hand - trying to capture raccoons that have been getting into the Columbia Performing Arts Center.

In addition to marshmallows, Peter uses chunks of tuna inside the trap and around the trap to lure in the unwanted pests.
Walking along the rooftop of the building, Peter inspects areas along the trim where the critters have been getting inside. "In late winter and early spring is when we see lots of raccoons finding ways to get into buildings in search of a place to raise their babies away from the elements and potential predators," Peter said.
The strong stench and the lure of a free meal from the mallows and tuna bring not only the desired pests but all animals. Peter did not catch any raccoons this day but an european starling did make it into the trap.

assignment pitch
For my one day shoot/five points of view photo assignment I am going to spend some time with a critter control or pest services guy. I have not made any contacts yet but I am looking at the company Critter Control. I also like their orange trucks you see all over town. I think this could be some cool possibility to get some querky photos. I also feel like it will be fun just to see how he deals with each situation.

little critter
When I was out taking photos of Ralph Mennemeyer's State Champion Bitternut Hickory I spotted this guy nearby. He climbed up a tree only 5 feet high and was just looking at me. It was a pretty cool moment because normally you see opossums at night and they look ugly but this guy has a nice look to him.
