Last night I went to Starfire Sports to shoot some of the reserve league match between Seattle Sounders and Portland Timbers. A good crowd was on hand, but unfortunately there wasn’t a lot to for them to cheer about. The Timbers got an early lead off a Seattle own goal, …
Ok, I continue to fail on posting these with any regularity. But I am still shooting at least once a day for my Project 365. It is somewhat interesting to see what the last couple of weeks have garnered all together in one single post. Well ok, perhaps not, but …
Looking to start their MLS season with three wins at home, the Sounders were hopeful that they could match the start they had in 2009. But the San Jose Earthquakes weren’t willing to oblige. They took the lead in the 24th minute when Chris Wondoloski converted his penalty kick, and …

Today was quite a day. It started with a good dose of procrastination followed by a flurry of attaching hardware and wires to the backs of my newly framed prints. Then figuring out how to pack it all into our 22 year old Saab for the journey from West Seattle …
