Photos taken after a day of playing volleyball on the grass at Veteran’s Park in downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA.
The fireworks are launched right next to the park during a beautiful July 3rd night.

Frozen Marina – 5D3 RAW Video and Stills
Wasn’t painfully cold out, so I stopped being a sissy and took some Marina 5d3 RAW video and stills at Mckinley Marina in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
RAW video colored in DaVinci Resolve and FCPX and edited in FCPX. Stills processed in Lightroom.
The stills shot without a hiccup, but with the camera temperature one degree Fahrenheit below what Canon says the 5D3 will function at (for a job I would have wrapped the camera in fabric to keep it warm), shooting RAW video led to a couple hiccups. Still got some great shots during the colorful sunset though.

AVP Milwaukee
Milwaukee really comes alive in the summer. Below are photos taken when the AVP (domestic pro beach volleyball tour) stopped at Bradford Beach in Milwaukee July 4 weekend. With John Hyden/Tri Bourne and Kerri Walsh Jennings/April Ross being the champions. See all the photos here.

Hailey Shoots Me
My right hand was on my camera while Party Boy’s young niece took this photo. Obviously I had to then do something especially cool with my left arm.

That’s MIAD (Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design) in the background. MIAD definitely has some great locations in Milwaukee’s 3rd Ward, including this one.
