Basketball season is coming to a close, so all the tournaments are underway. The top picture (published) and the next one are from the Baker v. Jay District 1-2A tournament semi-final game on Saturday night. The Baker Gators barely squeaked by with a 51-48 victory in the final seconds of the game.

Two days before Valentine's Day, the Westwood Retirement Resort housed a room full of retired vets who enjoyed a few sweet snacks and the company of Eglin Air Force Base airmen. One man was picked from the group to be the King of Hearts (pictured below and published) and was joined by the Queen of Hearts (in second picture) picked by the group as well.

Later that evening, I went to Niceville to photograph the boys District 2-5A semifinals game against Mosley. The Eagles won the game in a 73-38 blowout and advanced to the district championship against Fort Walton Beach.

The previous week I traveled back in time by going to my former middle school - Meigs. Even though the visit was like reliving the past, the technology the students were introduced to quickly snapped me back into the current year. In the top picture, two students use clickers to submit answers on a vocabulary test.

Another form of technology the students were using was a video camera that could be uploaded through the USB port. One student records another giving his "book talk" as a replacement to the standard written book reports in the past. (Both images were published)

That night I photographed a dimly-lit soccer game with Rocky Bayou v. Maclay. Maclay won the Region 1-2A finals game 5-0. The first image was published.
