November catch up...

First week of November

Here are some shots from the last few days that I wanted to post. Above - The Waterford girls soccer team ends their season by going down in the quarter-final match against Berlin. As much as I look for the crying players at a moment like this one, the player in the middle with the 1000 yard stare really got my attention. She is only a sophomore however, and has two more years to go to the states.

East Lyme - Election night - This is the East Lyme first selectman elect getting the news that we won be several thousand votes. His daughter had been hovering while he was getting the numbers over the phone. We ran a different and more news-worthy shot but I liked this one. Just a cute moment.

East Lyme - This was from the follow up story of a really horrible accident that had occurred the day before. Thousands of gallons of fuel oil had been spilled and we were checking on possible contamination to neighboring wells. The mom in this photo did not want to be photographed but did not mind me photographing her daughter...which is good because, I was not interested in photographing the mom anyway.

Westerly, RI - And finally after being brushed by the remnants of hurricane Noel, I was out to get storm photos. Now, after growing up on the north shore of Massachusetts, I know what BIG storm waves look like...and I have not seen one since moving to Southeastern Conn. Mainly this is due to Long Island Sound, so on occasioin I drive over to the RI shore to at least see what is rolling in off of the Atlantic.
