Ready for Some Football

Late August and early September in Michigan is like May in the Spring – perfect, sunny weather, pleasant temperatures, and cool nights.

It’s also high school football season, and we attend our Jackson High games to watch Aiden in the marching band. Every once in a while, the football team wins, too.

This year, I took along by big telephoto lens, the EF 200mm f/2.8, to grab some photos of the band on the field – and some of the characters watching, too. 

In high school, I played trombone in the marching band and had to focus on playing, marching, and putting on the halftime show. Now, as a parent, it’s nice to watch all the other parts play out, too.

Shot mostly on the Canon EOS M6 and EF-S 24mm f/2.8, but also with the Canon 5D and EF 200mm f/2.8.


Football Fridays

Back at it again for marching band season.

Just wish Jackson High’s football team were better.

Shot with the Canon 5D mark II and EF 40mm f/2.8.


Friday Night Lights

Small town Friday night? That means football this time of year.

With Aiden in marching band, that means we head to Jackson High for a beautiful September evening and watch our hometown Vikings win against Tecumseh. 

Shot on the Canon 5D and EF 50mm f/1.4.
