I mentioned how Saturday was a treat for me, I photographed three football games and had no other assignments. My friend thought it was funny that I considered that a treat. I like to photograph sports because all it is is me and the game and I can capture what I can, there isn't a great deal of thinking about ethics or deciding what to or not to photograph to tell the story--oh there is some of that(you don't want to have nothing but a team celebrating a touchdown when they eventually went on to lose the game). It is pure capturing of moments and actions of people who don't even notice you're there. Today was a little different. I was playing catch up to get the Meadville Football pictures done. I still had some of the ninth grade team and all of junior high to make their memory mates and 4x6's and team photos etc..... I had planned on having it done by now but then got incredibly busy and was told that most of the time, the pictures never got handed out until near the end of the season. So I'm still ahead of that at least. I also began working on a concept of action posters that I will try to work out something with The Meadville Tribune, who own the images I take for the newspaper so we can begin to offer these to families in the area. Our training and access to the sidelines lets us get a little better action shots than most parents in the stand, so it would be nice if these could find their way into homes in the area. I made up two mock-ups for possible posters and I think these could work out great for all sports in time. Meadville Tribune photographs by Richard Sayer
