Today I resumed my role as a professional armpit photographer. I didn’t post any peak-action armpits here, but you can see a bunch of them here. It was a pretty good game as South Bend Adams knocked off a highly-favored Lake Central to advance to the regional title game.
Found a few features today as I walked around the Notre Dame campus. A string of warm days has prompted me to walk around the campus to look for features this week. Today we were in the 60s. Can’t wait for spring officially to arrive.
Last week I spent part of my afternoon photographing at Dodd’s Sugar Shack near Niles, Mich. The reason I was there was for a story about above-normal syrup production levels thanks to the unseasonably warm temperatures. I followed around Don Dodd, the owner, for a while as he worked during what was a very busy day for him. My favorite moment came shortly before I left when he leaned up against a door in his barn and took a break from the hectic day.
