I'm trying to break into some local sporting events... I just can't get the damn university atheltic department to return my email. It might be time to call some favors

Oh ey.
I wouldn't know the first thing about how to engage in such stuff... maybe create a portfolio, send it to magazines or newspapers, see what happens?

Ah well, you need to make the time for it first

@Toxic: Those are looking good; I think the exposure is improved over the last ones. But why do you keep shooting the ugliest damn cars?

pretty much. my dad used to have one for his job and it would make the most amazing prints on all types of paper.
cost him an arm and a leg, too.

no idea where the thing is now.. he prolly sold it to one of his friends for way too little

I really want one of those things (epson 7800), but I can't quite justify the 3K it costs. The price really isn't that bad, but you still have to buy replacement ink and paper. Unless you plan on selling prints from it or are worth a fair amount because of your day job, it's a bit much.

Do you have access to one at school? We have one here that students can use, but you have to pay for it. I forget how much. It might be worth it to try it out on one of those photos, just to see how it looks.
My brother also has access to one at his architecture firm, and he’s printed off some pretty sweet posters for me with it.

Yeah, but i think you need to be taking a related class to use it. Maybe I'll just pretend I am

now why is there a traffic cone in that building? it vexes me greatly. It's those little uncertainities in that pic that make it wunderbar.

a swim coach is using it as a megaphone maybe?

btw dave some of the photos you've posted are outstanding :icon14:
