  4. What’s so neat about it • What's so cool about this type of photography is that he captures athletes in motion. This is very neat because his pictures capture the moment when the exciting parts happen in a game.

  5. Equipment • He’s shot all of his sports with Nikon and Canon digital SLR cameras since 2000. He started with Nikon film cameras when his career began in 1976 because that's what most newspapers supplied. Nikon digital SLRs were used from 2000 until about the middle of 2004 when he switched over to Canon. Only a couple of pictures in the early 2000's were shot on film when the single digital camera that he was issued was in for repairs.
