    great portraits, I find it hard not to distract the viewer too much from the subject when there is a swirly background - but in this case it's very well done!!
    The light in the second one is perfect! great job!

    My nephew. This kid does not like to sit still for a second. While I was trying to focus on him I told him that he could relax except not to move from where he was standing, so he took that as permission to contort himself from the waist wiggling and tilting himself forwards and back, all the while with a little smirk on his face! Then he says "I'm not moving my feet... ahaha." "Why you little...." Focus achieved via idle threats about upcoming beat downs...

    In my past life I was one of 39 national coaches for the sport of archery. I've coached training camps at the Olympic Training Center in Chula Vista, and coached in programs in Long Beach, CA and Phoenix, AZ. I don't coach competitive archery anymore, maybe some day I will get back into it, but it's one of those things that sucks up a lot of time, and I would have to give up photography in order to do it at the level I used to. In any event, once a year I volunteer to introduce archery to novices at a shooting event in Ridgecrest, CA. This teenage girl attended two years ago, and spent the entire time at the archery range, she had such a blast. Not only that, but she was like a sponge; I would give her some tips, demonstrate a couple things, and she would have it down in two tries. In all of my coaching experience I had never had an archer that picked up the sport so quickly and so effortlessly. Her technique, while raw, was also that of a third year archer in a Jr. Olympic development program. She attended again this year and one could tell that she had forgotten a lot of what I taught her two years prior, but she did not forget how much fun she had on the range. She went from never touching a bow, to shooting bottle caps off the top of empty water bottles at 18 meters! I'm cool knowing that if she never picks up a bow again, that she will have fond memories of her time on the range; that's what it's all about for me when introducing archery to young people.
