    North Dakota vs. Northern Illinois University

    Nothing like Division I football on a Saturday afternoon. The best part was that I got to shoot with my son, who's a staff photographer for the NIU newspaper.

    Re: North Dakota vs. Northern Illinois University

    With the 'Fighting Sioux' retiring their mascot/logo etc.. I'm curious what they'll end up calling themselves.. only really play them in mens' and women's hockey in Duluth since Minnesota-Duluth is D2 in the other sports.

    The last photo is out of order, correct? It's also the one I like best of the group, with the running back coming through the line.

    Very nice a usual Chris. I was at a D1 game this weekend but couldn't get field credentials.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    I didn't really place them in any order, just uploaded a few photos and added them to the site.

    Not knowing the finer points of the game (OK any points of the game) that 1st image has almost everything for me.
    The ball, cheerleaders, a zebra-striped umpire, and what looks like a missed flying ankle-tap tackle.

    It was the first play from scrimmage and the guy ran the ball about 80 yards for a touchdown. All of the photographers were on the other side of the field so we were all swinging our lenses around to get this guy flying down the field. My son got a similar shot and it's on the front page of the university newspaper.

    As a proud dad I added a snap of my son on the field with his big gun, the Canon 400 2.8L IS. That thing is a beast.

    Great pic of your son Chris! Has to make you very proud. I'm going to a photo symposium this weekend in Alpine, TX with my son, his treat. It's going to be a great time together with the cameras.

    We will be mandatory tank healers, similar to though less effective than paladins now. Lifebloom isBuy WOW Gold back and it's hungry for more. It also just so happens to be our ticket to Replenishment, regen on tier 11 gear, and extra Omen procs, so even if you're a raid healer, count on WOW Goldbeing a tank healer. Thanking you for players supporting our website, we have been providing the cheapest WOW gold. Comparing withRS Gold other websites, our WOW gold is cheap enough, fast, and safe.

    Our mastery bonus will get changed Metin2 Goldagain. The current form of mastery is weak unless you're a stopCheap WOW Gold me if you've heard this one before tank healer. We no longer have any long-duration HOT, so the window of time to take advantage of any HOT you've slapped on a random raid member is generally small. It'll be a patch or two before we see the new version of Tree Form. I still find it a little ironic that the model's finally getting an upgrade right when the form's artistic quality ceases to be a concern.
