ESPN ACC Basketbal

Today's assignment took me to Charlotte to photograph ESPN's ACC Basketball Media Day. Here, Jay Bilas hosts a roundtable with six of the twelve coaches, including UNC's Williams, Duke's Coach K and Clemson's Brownell. (Photo by Travis Bell/ESPN, Copyright 2011)

The North Stands-Columbia SC Photographer

Shooting from the camera deck at Williams-Brice Saturday presented some fun opportunities for images. Below, the student section in the north stands comes alive with towels during kickoff. The effect for this picture was done in camera, not in Photoshop. (Photo by Travis Bell/Sideline Carolina)

Fisheye High in The Sky

Saturday's assignment took me to Williams-Brice Stadium to photograph the Auburn game. This is my 21st season of photographing Gamecock football.

Part of the assignment was creating a panoramic from up high so I camped out on the camera deck. The lens used for this image captures a full 180 degrees, so even though you're looking straight at the 50-yard line, you can see the Columbia skyline to the far left!

Used the same lens for a self portrait afterwards.

Thanks for taking a look at the blog!
