Hey, Teacher!! Leave those kids alone!!

One down and two to go. Couldn't have asked much more out of a late May Saturday. Warm and sunny, but a little breezy. We opted to sit in the bleachers instead of on the field. And good thing too, I would have never have gotten this shot from the lawn seats. With over 600 names to call, it took a couple of hours from start to finish.


As she made her way back to her seat, she stopped for a few seconds to glance over at us, as if to say, "See, I told you I'd make it." I really could have used a 100-400L here... :(


The easy days are behind you now, Amber. I trust you made the most of them. Now the hard part begins. College and the working world awaits you.

JB, I have to disagree with you, I think the 70-200 did a great job. I don't know as if I would have liked this closer. Its kind of like time stood still for a moment, I really like how this one turned out and the effect you used. But I will agree and say you should have the 100-400 just cuz its a cool piece of glass! LOL and actually I always think of Alice Coopers song this time of year!!

I left Amber a message on Ed & Maralees site, but if she missed it:
Congrats to you Amber, All the best in whatever you choose to do in life!! Enjoy your summer!
