Greetings!
The main purpose of this web site is to get the photos that I’ve taken
of you into your hands. Mostly, these
are photos taken at climbing competitions, however there are photos taken from
other kinds of events as well.
The buttons to the left will lead you to these photographs. They are all links to Kodak Gallery
albums. Prints and other goodies may be
ordered from Kodak.
These photos are all volunteer work – I don’t get kickbacks from Kodak;
I use Kodak because they are good and because they don’t charge me to store
huge numbers of photographs.
Digital files:
Although it is easy to get prints, etc, from Kodak – they have no way of
supplying the original digital files. If
you have just a few photos that you’d like the full-sized digital file for, I
will email them to you. Any more than 3
or 4 files (they’re large!), and I recommend asking me to mail you a DVD. It costs you only $10 and I can likely fit
every shot I’ve ever taken of you and possibly of your team on one DVD. Just use the “Contact” link above and email
me. Yes – you can ask for photos from
past years.
I’m not in business here; I’m just a climbing Joe who enjoys taking
photographs. Don’t be afraid to contact
me.
2010 SCS Youth Nationals, Atlanta:
There are over 100 photos posted on the SCS Competitions page (link to
the left) from the Semi-Finals and Finals of the 2010 Nationals.
Please note that the “highlights” photos only represent less than 1% of
the 11,000 shots that I’ve actually taken at this event. That is a lot of photos that will end up
languishing unseen in some dark, unappreciated corner of a hard drive – unless
you contact me and let me know that you’d like to see them.
If you email me, I’ll find and upload your photos to Kodak and send you
a link – at no cost. If you’d prefer
digital files, at the cost of mailing you a DVD ($10), you’ll get the
full-sized digital files. Just let me know
whose photos to save from obscurity!
Don’t be shy. If you are
interested in seeing your photos, email me.
It costs you nothing to look!
