Moto-Cross....


 My brother Seamus works on some of the coolest, bad-ass, some might say craziest tv shows and movies EVER!!!. He is lucky enough to have worked on shows like NITRO-CIRCUS, and the world famous JACKASS. I have no clue how he got so lucky. He gets to travel all around the world hanging with world class athletes, well Travis Pastrana is pretty world class, Steve-well...hhhmm.. maybe not an athlete but some would say world class something.
Anyways, Seamus really never brags about what he does. He is pretty humble about it. That is until my 7 year old nephew NEMO got his first motocross bike for his birthday. A REAL SUZUKI 50 MOTO-BIKE!!! It is AWESOME. So Seamus pulled some strings and got Nemo,his dad, myself, and my other brother Ethan tickets to see a motocross contest last friday night. Nemo's eyes are huge enough, so you can only imagine how big they got as he watched Matt Buyten doing back flips and super-mans. It was truly one of the best nights in a long time with the men in my life. Now if only I can get Seamus to take me to the DC MOUNTAIN LAB...then well he will really be the best brother.

Now don't forget that I am just learning how to take photos. This was my first time taking any shots, (let alone action shots) in-doors. The lighting was difficult to get down and it all happens so fast. So any advice you can give would be beyond helpful. I was enjoying every second with my camera. I think I took hundreds of photos. These where just a few.
