EVENTS

Events are the inspiration of so much of my interest in photographing the people involved in these events. They are different from the roaming approach to photography where I pursue images to select, shoot and share. They are missions that occur sometimes monthly, bi-annually, annually and sometimes with some years in between their happening. I try to improve my approach for each event that for the serious photographic enthusiast can take place up to 25 or more times a year.
