Photo of the Week for November 2nd to November 8th

This was a very interesting week! It was a slow photography week as HS sports and events are slowing down due to the end of season. Had some other corporate events and some college basketball, yes thats right basketball is around the corner! Anyways thats not what made it all interesting. I got a phone call mid week that I was being published!!!! Not just any magazine either, Sports Illustrated!! Yup I got 2 images published in Sports Illustrated page 22 November 9th issue, nothing huge but its a very big first step for me. Hoping for a lot more to come!

On to the POTW!

Selected this one as the photo of the week as it was a very busy cheer weekend with 10 hours of cheer on Saturday, and then some with the UConn basketball game on Sunday. Also figure I will be posting a lot of Basketball shots in the upcoming POTWs!

And yes the 3 basketball shots are of the same player, just happened that way! I concentrated on him a lot as he was the leading scorer with 32 points, and was just coming off an injury.
