‘Big Boy’ paint job

On Labor Day I was the only photographer on the clock so my job was to go feature hunting to fill our hole on page A3. I was on my way to work when I passed Holliday Park and noticed a crew of folks with paint brushes working on the ‘Big Boy’ Union Pacific train. The photo Gods were smiling upon me. There are some days when it’s incredibly hard to find a feature photo in Cheyenne, but Monday I just so happened to stumble upon one.

Alex Frye, 13, carefully applies a coat of black paint around identifying numbers on the Big Boy train on Monday, Sept. 5, 2011, in Holliday Park. Members of the Sherman Hill Model Railroad Club spent the day applying fresh paint to the train, one of eight existing 4000-class Union Pacific trains still in existance today.

Cheyenne South loses home opener 63-0

For the second week in a row, I was assigned to shoot the Cheyenne South football game. This week’s result was more or less the same result: a blowout loss to a much larger and more experienced team. Before tonight’s game – South’s first-ever home varsity football game – I was allowed in the locker room to photograph the coach’s pre-game speech. It was the first time I’ve ever photographed a pre-game speech inside a locker room, and it was a good one by coach Tracy Pugh. Sadly, the team wasn’t able to put any points on the board tonight.
