Thanks for the comment! You are correct on all counts. I'm taking care of the chin problem by losing weight. I'm currently ~50lbs lighter than I was when I filmed this and I plan on losing up to 40 more pounds. I shot from that angle because there was a bunch of crap stacked on the floor, just blow the frame. I didn't notice the fan issue until I edited the video.
I'll be making another appearance on my channel in a couple months, after I've taken care of each problem you mentioned.
I wish there was a Photographer like you in Syracuse for the Syracuse games. Not that I hate OSU or anything, just that Im a diehard 'Cuse fan and wish there were photographers like you there.
I love your work. After every OSU (football) game I check the ozone to see if you got any good pics. One thing I noticed is you seem to focus a lot on individual players rather than whole action scenes or wide angles, is there a reason for that? Btw I also really like the stadium pictures you take, especially for road games like Washington last year. Can't wait for the Coliseum pics coming up!
Thanks for the comment! It's tough to get close up pictures, which are important, and wider angle stuff when we only have one photographer on the field. We're -hoping- for a second photographer this year, but that is entirely up to Ohio State.
Thanks! Everything on that wall was shot digitally. I printed everything myself, with the exception of one large picture that was not shown in the video. I shoot entirely in RAW more for the best quality possible. Most of the were shot with a Canon 1DmkII, which is 8.something megapixels. Others were shot with a 4.3 mpx Canon 1D to a 12 mpx Canon 5D. I print on an Epson 4800 printer.
Jim, great photos. Looking forward to your postgame commentaries. On your prints, are those all from a digital source? They look great, and I was wondering at what resolution they are typically shot.
Nice blog! feel free to check my broadcast out!

Just some tips:
Being a photographer you should pay attention to your backgrounds (the fan-light flicker on the cheerleader photo is very distracting)
You could try to move your camera angle higher (it will make your double chins show less and make you look thinner) Sorry, but it does really help.
