Tiger Woods? Lebron James?

Nope, my new friend Ben, class of 2008 at Flathead High School. Here is one of my shots from last night’s senior portrait session in Kalispell.

Ash from above

Here are two shots from last night taken at my house in Kalispell. First a piece of ash that I found in the yard and a pano from the front yard of the smoke.

I met some great people at the Montana Cup this year. I hope to see you all again next year. Here is an email I got today from JC and the photos he is talking about.

Craig,

You have some beautiful shots there! I’d like to order 2 prints.

I have about a thousand pictures of my boat with no wind, or lazing around between starts. Nice to get a few actually racing with the sheets in! My ego especially likes one you got of us approaching the leward mark ahead of Limerick, Jole Blon’, and White Star. Too bad we doused early!

I’ll keep your card handy for next year!

Montana Cup 2007

Yesterday I shot the 2007 Montana Cup from a chase boat. It was the first time I have had a the chance to photograph the boat my wife crews on from a chase boat. The first shot was taken at 7:30 a.m. during the first leg of the Class B race of the Montana Cup. It’s smoke in the sky from the Chippy Creek Fire. Racers were cleaning off the ash from their boats before heading out. It was like gray snow falling.
