I’ve been spending time with a CCAC photo class and exploring the city to go and take photos one evening a week. Been a great chance to see some cool new spots and run the tilt/shift lens a lot more. Here’s a couple of my favorites so far - shoot me a note if you’d be interested in a print or could use similar shots for your business!
Steelers win, Pittsburgh riots.
I went out right after the Super Bowl game to photograph the anticipated riots here in the Oakland area of Pittsburgh. It was mostly Pitt students, with a mix of CMU'ers and even some random adults from the area. I was super-impressed by how well the cops handled the crowds - sure there were torn down signs, leveled busstops, broken library windows and bonfires in the streets, but I still haven't heard of any major personal injuries. Click on through for more photos from the riots on my Flickr account.
