What a Burn-Out

Here's some stuff from today's drag races. Cheers.












Jack Maroney, left, holds a hat through the top of his nephew, Ron Maroney's Funny Car to shade him from the heat while waiting in line for his run. With the heat on the track topping 90 degrees, coupled with the racers' fire-proof jumpsuits, waiting can become a very sweaty business.


















Bill Cooper and his grandson Matthew, 7, plug their ears while watching the drag races.

Lots of New Stuff

Haven't updated in a while, so I thought I'd put a bunch up from the last week or two. Hope you enjoy.

Cheers.



















These are a few from a fun story on a newly opened dog kennel here in town- an incredibly difficult story to focus on for someone who loves animals as much as me. I spent more time playing with them than photographing them I think.












Dillon Wooster, 3, sticks his head in a fishing net to check out his fresh catch at the Reel Fun Fish Out at Hart Park. More than 1,000 people showed up to this tiny pond (smaller than a football field) for the annual fishing competition.












An angler shakes a tangled mess of fishing line in an attempt to untangle a nasty knot.












A bobber sits at the end of a fishing pole lying in wait.











BC's Tyler Garewal dives for a flyball in center field Tuesday in the Renegades' game against L.A. Pierce.










East High's Peter Gonzalez, left, gets his nose broken as he takes a knee to the nose from Lemoore's AJ Jaramillo in the 114 lb. weight class at the Yosemite Divisional.














Ryan Edwards breaks down into tears as he addresses the families of the men he is accused of killing in a drunk driving accident. Edwards pled guilty and was sentenced to 13 years in prison.












Nathan Meredith comforts Ethelette Edwards as she breaks down into tears at a vigil honoring Perry Robinson, 15, who was killed one year ago while riding his bike in front of his apartment.
