FA-18F Swordsmen – Fighting 32nd

This past weekend I was working with a friend near Love Field when we saw two F-18 Navy Jets fly by, circle, then land at Love Field. After driving around the airport for a bit I located the two planes and made my way to the refueling port where the planes were parked. Right when I pulled up the four F-18 pilots came out on their way to the Navy/SMU game that they just flown over. I learned they would be taking off in the morning. So I showed back up Sunday morning and just happen to pull into the lot right when they did. Followed them out to the tarmac and was able to shoot a few pictures before the took off. They were part of the 32 Fighter Wing off the USS Harry Truman.

Thank you guys! I really appreciate you and your service for our country. Let me know if you want any of these pictures.

Rwanda’s Passion Week

For the past 17 years the week leading into Easter has been reserved as the only week in which it is widely acceptable for Rwandans to speak about and observe the horrific events know as the Rwandan Genocide. If you were on a street corner in Kigali this week you would see flashes of purple from the arm bands and scarves worn by those personally affected by the Genocide. And if you visited the Genocide Museum just outside of town you might witness a gathering of hundreds mourning the the slain who’s bones are only now being laid to rest.

Here are a few images I’ve posted before that I took while in Kigali during the Easter Week in 2009. The link is to a piece by James Nachtwey who was there in 1994. His images are very graphic. They are shocking.  Click HERE for his story.

Finally…Nikon D7000

I’d like to thank my brother in law Jae Ellis, Claire Smith, Andrew Hudson, and Chad Lemons for letting me borrow their cameras over the last four months.

Indwe Cover with Tanit Phoenix

I received a call from my lovely friend Tanit Phoenix a few weeks ago telling me that South African Airlines wanted to use a photo I took of her for the cover of their in-flight magazine. So I got my first cover! Tanit is an amazing actress from South Africa and is being talked about as the next Charlize Theron. The magazine is currently flying around South Africa and other Southern Africa countries in the backs of airplane seats.

No wind machines, just hair flip + timing. Also used a small strobe (SB-600) through an umbrella high camera left. The second picture also ran in the article.
