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.

Who's This Guy On The Field With Me?

What a fun day in Clemson as my son, Hunter, joined me for the first time on the sidelines for the Clemson-Virginia game on Oct. 19. 

He did an amazing job!

His image of head coach Dabo Swinney running down the hill was used by The Post and Courier, which is a member of my wire service, Sideline Carolina. 

The P&C used it in print, on their mobile app, website and on social media. Below is how it looked in print. 

I started photographing college and pro football when I was 19 years old. This was definitely the best day ever on the field.

That 5-Hour, 13-Inning Clemson Game

Clemson's Super Regionals game vs. Florida Sunday was the most entertaining and crazy baseball game I've ever covered. 

Tough loss for Tigers but I love the strategy that Coach Bakich took in getting ejected. 

It fired up a crowd that had deflated in extra innings, mostly because it was hotter than a swamp in August.
