Burton_Gallery_Poster_blog

I’m happy to announce that Syracuse University has funded a gallery of my work from the Beijing and Vancouver Olympics. The collection of photos will hang in the Panasci Lounge in the Schine Student Center From April 1, 2010 until Mid May. There will be a catered gallery reception on April 1, 2010 at 6:00PM [...]

Vancouver Olympics, Entry 9

Photos by me. Photoshop work that is above and beyond anything I’ll ever be able to do done by this guy. This may or may not be a rough draft- in the original photos, the bottom edge is kept in the frame, to give a better sense of height. We’re working on creating a “fish-eyed” [...]

Vancouver Olympics, Entry 5

I’ve never been one for facades or presentations – I tend to prefer straight-laced honesty. With that said, I would just like to express that I am not very pleased with myself tonight. I can shoot better. Today was weak. That is all. United States rider Lindsey Jacobellis ignores pleas from an NBC correspondent for [...]
