Caps-Canadiens Game 5

Montreal's 1st goal in Game 5 of the series...Goal-Cam View...Fired via Pocket Wizard remotes from the Zamboni corner...cool huh?

Our Washington Capitals should have wrapped this series up with the Montreal Canadiens, but...They looked lackluster, and like 1/2 the team didn't show up to play. We lost 2-1, with the only goal scored by Ovie. I was firing the "Goal Cam" via Pocket Wizard remotes, so just a few game images from this one. Had a great place to watch the game, just off the glass in the Zamboni corner of the ice...

Nationals Opening Day 2010

Hey, where's my beer?

It was a gorgeous day at National Park in DC yesterday for the home opener. That's about all it was since the Nationals lost to the World Champion Phillies 11-1, oh well....President Obama threw out the 1st pitch, in what is a tradition in DC for our President to have that honor.
Opening day always brings back fond memories for me. As a kid, I vividly remember going to every Washington Senator's opening day with my grandfather, and, being able to skip school. Maybe it because I was a kid then, but the home opener has always been a "big deal". Frank "Hondo" Howard, Paul Casanova, Eddie Brinkman & Don Zimmer, are a few of the names that pop up in my head..Baseball was "it" for a kid then, we ate, slept, and woke to baseball. Having a transistor radio hidden under my pillow to listen to the late night games was the norm...Now, my head sees the pillow, and I strike out.

Cherry Blossoms around the Tidal Basin

Woke up this morning to hear that the Cherry Blossoms in DC were at peak bloom...It happened to be a spectacular day here in the Washington area, 80 & sunny with no humidity whatsoever. David & I headed down before noon, not the best time I know, but we managed to make some nice images. Enjoy, thanks for looking..
