Remote Camera Captures The Better Angle

I recently invested in a pair of magic arms and clamps to put up a remote camera. Yesterday I photographed the SMU Mustangs vs the Jacksonville Dolphins and with 14.8 seconds remaining in the game I captured these two images. This shows how crucial it can be to have two cameras and two different angles to capture the action.

New to Blogger

After two years of using my website http://brendanjsullivan.com/ for my portfolio and blog images I decided to separate the two. I am now jumping on the blogger/blogspot train, to share my recent work. Hopefully, this will prevent potential employers from thinking the photographs I was posting on my "blog" were "portfolio" worthy. My fall internship at The Dallas Morning News was extended. Here is a look at some of my favorite images during the past six months. All images are copyright of Brendan J. Sullivan and The Dallas Morning News.
