Stumbled across this while on Tim Kemple’s Blog…thought it was interesting enough to repost here…
Merry Christmas!

I’m finally getting around to looking at some of the images from our three trips to Russia this past year. The image above was taken from our hotel window in Cheboksary during our first trip. I really liked how the sun illuminated the birch trees in the morning.
I think I would spend about 15-minutes every morning looking out our window and watching as about a half doozen or so people would begin shoveling what was left of the winter snow and begin preparing the flower beds for the spring.
Recently the entire family has been sick with either a cold or stomach flu. On top of that I have been working some long hours preparing for a big proposal and interview.
Alex was feeling better so i decided to grab him and head out to a favorite trail for a little walk in the woods…



I finally got a chance to check out Alex’s Saturday morning soccer game. I brought the camera along to capture all the ACTION. After spending a good portion of the time shooting the mob of kids chasing the ball around, I noticed out of the corner of my eye the boredom being experienced by the goalies. I found it more entertaining watching the goalies pass the time until they got called up to play than the actual game. In the end I found the images I shot of the goalies much more interesting.
Now I know why they give the kids big baggy shirts – it helps the goalies pass the time.
