I finally got around to updating the last three football games. First is the Niceville vs. Fort Walton Beach game from October 22. Niceville won that game easily, 31-13. This picture was published:
These blow horns smothered the night air with their sounds as the game progressed. This was the first game I heard these blaring the entire time:
The next Friday, Oct. 29, I traveled to Baker to photograph their game against the Freeport Bulldogs. As a reoccurring photographer at the Freeport games, I predicted a Freeport win, which indeed happened, but not quite as easily as I expected. The Gators put up a good fight but ultimately fell short as Freeport won 42-34. This published image reminded me of the game, Baker and Freeport were mostly neck-and-neck until near the end of the game with Freeport being out on top (Freeport player's hand higher):

Finally, this past week I photographed a district rivalry game that was radiating with intensity and passion unlike any game I've seen this entire season. Crestview played Niceville at home, and the team that was struggling just over a month ago seemed to be different team that wanted this win more than anything. They almost had it too, but Niceville prevailed, 28-27. This image was published:
Video of the game:
Briefly, a few weeks ago I was assigned to photograph a homeless stand down at the First Presbyterian Church in Fort Walton Beach. They gave them clothes, toiletries, medical check ups, flu shots (photographed below) and a hot lunch from the Golden Corral (also pictured). My heart warmed seeing the help these people received and increased my desire to use my talents as a photographer to help those in need. Stay tuned for more on that later.
Till next time!
