How is your weekend going so far? I hope it is amazing…..if not here is a photo of the Confidante Hotel pools on Miami Beach Florida. I took this photo right after sunrise, when the pools were empty. Otherwise, I’d never get a photo of this spot without tons of humans in and around the pools.
Shutter Rush
As some of you know, I covered the Steelers’ last game of the season in Baltimore (along with most of their home games). I can’t believe I’ve been photographing the Steelers from the sidelines for 8 years now.
Anyway, I traveled with two other great sports photographers @jasonpohuski and @jakemysliwczykphoto. We made a weekend out of it…traveled together, photographed many cool spots in the city and covered the game together. As part of that adventure, we photographed of course, but we also captured much of it via video. All that was put together by Jason into a feature film called “Shutter Rush – Baltimore Edition”. Jason even got @underarmour to sponsor this project. Big thanks to them for all their support and gear. I don’t know when, but it sounds like this film will be released on Amazon Prime and other major streaming services in the near future. Once that happens, I’ll give you an update. In the meantime, we’re actively planning our next trip to have fun and capture photos and video for the next Shutter Rush edition… More to come.
Travel Sunrise
I scrolled through numerous photos in my archive tonight looking for something to post. I came across this photo I took while on one of our cruises. Per my normal process, I was up before 99% of the passengers trying to capture the ultimate sunrise photo. I don’t think photo falls into the ultimate photo category, but I like it a bunch.

Dreaming
I don’t know about you, but I want… correction…I need routinely timed/planned vacations. When I have long breaks between vacations I go a little a little crazy… I can feel my stress increase. I’m in the middle of a long stretch right now. At least what I consider a long stretch and I can feel my stress increasing right now. My ability to tolerate things becomes harder during these long stretches….. So I’ll just dream (some may call it mediate) about my next trip by looking at this photo and attempt to remember what it felt like to sit there with my feet in the sand, wind on my face and sun rising from the sea… It’ll have to get me through until the next trip.
I took this photo near Puerto Morelos Mexico on a beautiful morning.
