UNPA Awards Website
The UNPA website with galleries of the winning photographs, portfolios, and multimedia presentations is now online. Make sure you check out the portfolio of photographer of the year Ramin Rahimian. He’s shooting from the heart, for himself, and it shows in the work.
This marks the end of contest season for me. My UNPA tally—
1st place sports feature (the photo above)
2nd place multimedia
3rd place humor (should have entered it in sports feature)
My colleague and friend Rick Egan snags the Worst Photo award for the second year in a row and his third overall. I’ve got to do worse next year.
The Flying Goalkeeper
My thanks to Davis goalkeeper J.T. Webster. This guy was all over the place vs. Skyline, making leaping saves, diving saves, and putting his head in the way of several pairs of flying cleats.
Give me a cloudy day and a soccer game anytime, especially with a goalkeeper like Webster.
The End – HS State Championships
This year Skyline won. These post-game celebrations are full of great moments and faces. It’s a shame I can’t stop time (yet) so that I could do some real compositions. These chaotic moments when players go crazy become a frenzy of grab-shots. Both of these frames were made with the camera held up over my head. The key is to know your camera and know your lens, so that you can point it at a scene and know what you’re capturing even when you aren’t looking through the viewfinder.
That’s Skyline senior Jenteal Jackson, letting out a scream after they beat American Fork for the state championship. Key player, key moment. I’ll admit it: Luck.
