Thunder Ridge MX 7-27-08

This weekend marked motocross race #2 for me. Last month it was Unadilla, this month it was Thunder Ridge. As I arrived, the first thing I saw was somebody coming back from their practice completely covered in mud. At this point I knew I would get some good shots regardless of the weather. It was muddy in the morning, and so dry in the afternoon that they started to spray the track to keep the dust down.

Casey had another good weekend, taking first overall with two wins. Ryan was fast all day, winning his first race, and placing third in his second race. He took second overall. Ryan took home first place at Supercross on Friday night in Little Falls. Once again I had a lot of fun and got some good shots.

I ran into this guy (or girl) on my way home and helped it across the road. Although not to keen on moving quickly, after a while, I got it to safety. I had never seen a snapping turtle this big in the wild. It was about the size of my steering wheel:

Unadilla MX Races

This past weekend, I met up with Matt, Ryan, Casey, Rick, and Evan at the Unadilla District 3 motocross races. Rain threatened early in the day, but it turned out to be nice with lots of sun, and lots of riding. I spent most of the day around the middle of the track, near the gravity cavity (the largest jump on the course). I had never been to an MX race before, so I really had no idea what to expect. It turned out to be a lot of fun. We got some great pictures too. I’m excited to check out the next race.

Casey had a great day with two first place finishes, and first overall in the woman’s division. Coming off a first place finish last weekend, Ryan raced to two third place finishes this weekend for another solid outing. Rick and Jeremy battled it out all day in the over 30 class, each coming away with one win, and one second place finish. Rick will be racing in the amateur/expert class next time.

Sacketts Harbour Battlefield State Historic Site tour: This is one of thirteen videos that I created as a part of an internship for the New York Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation. They were shot with very little equipment and usually in one day each. There was almost no artificial lighting in these videos due to the nature and rules of the historic sites. The purpose of the videos was to bring the historic sites in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities act. Click here to go on the tour of Sacketts Harbor Battlefield. sacketts harbor

Photo Blogging

I started photo blogging June 17, 2007. Sometimes I’ll post almost every day…sometimes there is a week between posts. I really enjoy doing it though. It’s a good excuse to get out and shoot some pictures; you get some great feedback, and in looking at other blogs witness some amazing photography.

A new look.

Welcome to the new Tuckered Out Films website. I went with a simple look trying to stray from the “ski movie” theme, because that’s not all I do.
