Around Town

Greetings!

So I've been busy these past few weekends. As promised, I created an Around Town gallery which contains galleries of photos from a night on the town. I've managed to get out there every Friday this month so far and posted photos from 2/6 and 2/13 with photos from 2/20 to be posted soon. Most of the Friday nights out have been at the Red Barn, a bar in Palm Desert California and one night was spent at Roc's Firehouse Grille.

In that time, I've covered eight different bands in that time and you can find their photos in the Music Galleries. All of them were great and I had a lot of fun photographing them.

So what's coming up? I have an event that I'm shooting Monday for a visiting Alumni Association and the one I look most forward to... The 2009 Palm Springs Corvette Club Annual Autocross . Not only do I plan on being there both days photographing the event for the club but I will also be racing my 2000 Ford Lightning. I've been racing with the club for the past several years and it always brings a smile to my face when people who have never seen a pick-up truck move around the track faster than some of the Corvettes. I've agreed to donate my services to take photographs for the club's website and they are going to allow me to sell photos. After the event is over and I (hopefully) tally up my earnings from picture sales, I will donate a portion to their charity benefiting ALS research. If you live in the area, the Autocross will be held at the Indio Fairgrounds on March 14th and 15th from 10AM to 5PM and is open to all makes of cars with a low entry fee of $20 which includes one run.

Hope to see you there and that's it for now!
