Fighting for One More Game

The best part of covering sports is the playoffs. One team goes home and the other lives to fight another day. No matter which teams win or losses the emotion that erupts at the conclusion of the game is always intense.

Max's World

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to spend a few hours with Max Smith-Levin, 3, who was born with a rare disorder that left him without eyes. The reporter and I were not sure what to expect from this story. When we got there his parents explained to us that Max loves music. When a song began he would start to smile and swing his body to the rhythm of the music. I could only imagine what it would be like to be blind, with only sounds and sense of touch to help me experience the pleasures of life. He also has a set of prosthetic eyes .Watching him playing music with his keyboard was very inspiring for me. This three-year-old little boy is amazing and I'm sure he will be making beautiful music in the future.

When the music stops he grabs his ears to signal to his parents that he wants more.

Watching and Waiting

I spent 4 hours in a cold barn photographing 4-H kids as they prepared their animals(cattle, pigs, and sheep) for sale.

I paced back and forth between stales just looking for a photo to emerge in front of me. I'm so grateful for the subjects who don't mind me or my camera gazing at them for long moments.

I'm natural a shy person and photojournalism has allowed me to enter others worlds and just hangout. The camera allows me to just watch and wait. I have learned so much about people and world this way.
