Special Olympics Fall Classic



Recently I got an email from Working with Artists asking photographers to volunteer to photograph the Special Olympics Fall Classic. I decided to photograph volleyball...a game which I am VERY familiar.(My daughter played club and varsity volleyball.)

The games were not unlike true Olympic games. Time was kept, rules in place and scores were recorded. The athletes were dedicated, focused, and competitive! It was my privilege to photograph such a worthwhile event and I am richer for the experience. So is my daughter who volunteered that day too!

Here are a few images from the day...





This athlete saw me with the camera and just HAD to strike this pose! What a guy!





This athlete had the most engaging smile...
