This morning I was up early due to some major back pain. Yeah, I know, if it isn't one thing, it's another. Being up early has its advantages though. It made me realize that the light was going to be sweet this morning. So I mustered up my courage and pried myself out of my chair, grabbed the camera bag and went down to the marina. Ithaca's marina at Cass Park/Treman Marina is pretty small and the boats we get are pretty low-key for the most part. My favorite part is that it is so incredibly quiet first thing in the morning. Sometimes I can even get out there before the rowers or joggers have begun. Such was the case today.

Okay, so I love my new camera. Is that a bad thing? I think the differences between my older Nikon D80 and this D300s are huge. And I LOVE IT! Have I said that enough yet?

And for those of you who've asked, yes, we are making many of these prints available for purchase via Zenfolio. Great quality prints, excellent packing, very fast turn around and decent prices. As always, comments are welcomed.

Fingerlakes Dragonboat Races - July 2010

It took a while, but I finally was able to pull together some of yesterday's images into a slideshow. Enjoy!

Enter the Dragon (with apologies to Bruce Lee)

Today Ithaca hosts the Fingerlakes International Dragon Boat Races. Teams from all over are here. Mayhem rolled together with enough sweat, testosterone, water and fun made for a very fun race. I only stayed for the briefest time this morning. I took a few pictures while I was near the waterside. My goal is to have these posted to Zenfolio before tomorrow evening, but between now and then, I want to edit a few and really beef up a few others.

So, check out www.alexsollaphotography.zenfolio.com.... prints will be available.
