Camera, get set FIRE!

Hands getting too tired to keep firing those pictures, or are you interested in being able to talk to your camera? Well soon Canon shooters will be able to operate their cameras by voice when they connect it to their computers.

Field Hockey Season Close

The MSU girls field hockey team competed in the NCAA finals tournament, I got the chance to shoot during the semifinal rounds. I wish I had been able to shoot on Sunday during the final round, it snowed so hard that they had to postpone the game due to weather. All teams played well but Iowa won the quaterfinal round and will advance.

Shrinking Markets

The freedom of the press is under assault and no body cares. This one is slipping under the radar, why is it that there no longer are any careers in photojournalism, why are there so many positions in PR, Advertising and Marketing?

What will happen if these things continue?
