Detroit Red Wings v Colorado Avalanche Game 1 & 2

What an experience it has been shooting games 1, 2 & 5 of the Nashville series and then 1&2 of the Colorado series. I was lucky enough to get the splash page on ESPN.com for game 1 as well as a nice size shot in USA Today on Friday April 25th.

Detroit Red Wings v Nashville Predators Game 1

Got the call at the last minute to cover my first Red Wings game.  It was a learning experience and shooting Hockey at Joe Louis Arena isn't the easiest thing in the world.  The ice level holes are hard to come by and often poorly positioned.  But, I still was able to get some nice shots.  This shot appeared on ESPN.com the following day.

Detroit Tigers v. Chicago White Sox 4_5_08

Finally a beautiful day in Detroit this spring and a great day for a baseball game. Magglio Ordonez received his "Silver Slugger" trophy prior to the game to award him for the Major League Batting Champion 2007. Brandon Inge had a good game playing 3rd base and Dontrelle Willis looked sharp on the mound in his first start as a Tiger. All of this wasn't good enough to net them the win. Chicago won the game 5-3.

Detroit Tigers Opening Day 2008

Got a call late last week to shoot the Detroit Tigers Opening Day.  All kinds of excitement is surrounding this season for the Tigers and the fans came out to support the team.  44,943 were there to see the game and many more were milling around the stadium area downtown.  Miss America 2008 Kirsten Haglund was there to sing the National Anthem and throw out the ceremonial first pitch.  The Tigers lost the game 5-4 in 11 innings, but a good time was had by all. It was my first Opening Day and a great way to get to experience it.
