A'ja Comes Home

A few moments from covering A'ja Wilson's jersey retirement Sunday. 

Growing up, at one point, the 6-4 Wilson wanted to focus on tennis. However, her father, Roscoe, seen in the images, told her she didn't have a tennis body but was born to play basketball.

Could the statehouse look like this later today? I certainly hope so! (Photo by Travis Bell)

He's Gone!

Today's assignment took me to Clemson to photograph my 31st Clemson-USC rivalry game. (I started shooting this game when I was a teenager.) 

I usually shoot from the field but decided to capture action from the camera deck to get a different angle.

No Sun But a Lot of Color - Clemson Tiger Paw on Bowman Field

On Sunday, I got up at 6:15am, knocked down 75mg of caffeine, then headed out to photograph the sun rising on Tillman Hall. It was all clouds, no sun, so I made this self portrait for the scrapbook. 

I love this area on Bowman Field in front of Tillman. 

In 1960, my father was standing near this spot when the strap on his snare drum snapped and he had to chase the rolling drum down the hill for over 100ft. He was playing in the Lancaster (SC) High School band during homecoming weekend at Clemson. 

My dad was at Clemson 1960, I've been photographing Clemson football since I was a teenager and now my son, Hunter is a sophomore at Clemson.
