Milton Street

Mayoral candidate Milton Street was released from jail for unpaid parking tickets on February 21, 2007 in New Jersey. The last one of this series ran in the paper.

Scenes of San Francisco

So I went to San Francisco this weekend for a conference. Here are some shots I did when I did the whole tourist thing.

Sixers vs. Wizards

Sixers vs. Wizards, again, on Valentines day. It was a busy ass day.

Bob Perkins, Jazz DJ for WRTI

It's convenient enough when my two jobs combine into one day. Aside from my internship with the Daily News, I work at Temple's Community Education Center. They ran a story on Bob Perkins, a jazz dj for WRTI [located at the CEC]. This is a shot of Bob in action.

Weather on Valentines Day

Snow and wind and huge puddles of icy water with your sneakers on. Yes, I went weather hunting today. I found some fun people sledding down the art museum steps. Most of the people I met today were from Uarts. Some were just passerbys. Nonetheless they let me borrow their sled and I busted my ass on the icy pavement. FUN!

Braided

One of our assignments for Photographic Lighting class is to shoot and light someone "at work." Shardell and CJ were kind enough to work with me and these are some of my results for that assignment.



What do you think?

North Catholic vs. Father Judge

Here comes another round of basketball. North Catholic beat Father Judge at FJHS. It was good to see old friend Michael Mac who is now teaching at FJHS. It was also good to see good friend and fellow photog Krystlle Marcellus. Life flies really fast! AH!

Sixers vs. Nets

The Philadelphia Sixers played the New Jersey Nets on February 5, 2007 at the Wachovia Center. The Sixers beat the Nets in overtime 100-98.



This was by far the most fun assignment I've had at the DN. I got to tell Jason Kidd how ugly his kid is! (Just joking, I love the Nets.) The last one in this series was published in today's paper.

Rally in Love Park

I went feature hunting yesterday afternoon and found a rally in support of Lt. Ehren Watada. Watada was court martialed on February 5, 2007 because he refused to deploy to Iraq. Despite below-freezing temperatures, several representatives from community groups came on 15th Street and JFK blvd.
