Great question!. The remote was set in the same place, all day, at .1/2000 F5.6 ISO Auto. And actually it got moved a little, so I had 30 seconds to "fix" & refocus it (without someone standing in). I think my guessimate focus worked!

The T9, lowest price was back in Nov 2023, at a price of $249.99. So right now you are getting the deal at $265.99.(Not to mention the 10% back), yeah it's worth a look.

Prepping for the World Championships in Japan means having pins ready to gift & trade! . Fun fact; I designed this logo on a piece of paper back in 2015 when I was in Japan as a track & field camp counselor.

Perhaps one of the most insane races i've ever captured. The kick & determination by Laros over the last 100 meters, truly impressive.

We’re not allowed to photograph on the grey, so I placed a remote camera for this head on angle (while I was on the inside track for reactions). Canon 1dxmk2 with a 70-200 F2.8

In 2016 I photographed my first PreClassic - I was so nervous for this meet but I met this girl…. We just celebrated our 9 year anniversary a few days ago. This weekend we got to work on the same team for Pre x TrackTown, so we recreated the first time that we met.

What's one expensive purchase you made that turned out to be totally worth it—and you'd buy it again without hesitation.

Nike stock almost up 10%. Some say it’s due to the Q4 - I’m saying it’s because of Faith Kipyegon. #Breaking4

I photographed Cooper Flagg at the Nike Hoop Summit back in 2024. While I never got a chance to see him in college, I’m hoping I’ll see him at the NBA level next season - with a dunk like this.
