Last couple days of college

Furs, Furs, Furs

Art and Todd LaBellman, managers of LaBelle Furs, helped Wendy two years ago with her custom made fur coat. LaBelle Furs, a family-owned business in Orlando since 1919, houses almost 5,000 pieces of fur in their cold storage. It is kept at 46 degrees and 50% humidity.



I shot this with my camera attached to a twin lens reflex. This is the first assignment I've ever tried that with. Not sure I'll do it again, I wasn't thrilled with the results. Sometimes it doesn't work out, guess it is just part of the game.

Not Pants...

"Freaky Toes"

The cat has seven toes on his two front paws. Thank you Mr. Hemingway.

Rolling my ankle...

I rolled my ankle on Sunday playing floor hockey, and Tuesday I shot a football feature on crutches. Not as difficult as I thought, and not so much a balancing act as previously thought. I managed with two bodies, some gear around my waist, and one crutch.
I worked with good friend Woody Wommack on a feature for the Naples Daily News about Central Florida football player Cory Hogue, who is recovering from compartment syndrome in both his legs. The scars from the lifesaving surgery were very visible.
