Capital Sprints 2009

Row row row your boat. Although I fancy myself a sports photographer, rowing is on the pretty long list of sports I have not yet photographed. That changed when I went down to the Anacostia River to shoot the annual rowing competition, Capital Sprints X.

I'm a little salty that I didn't get to spend nearly as much time as I wanted to work the situation as I got called for a last minute shoot. But the highlight of the day was getting stopped by a cop on the South Capitol St. bridge in response to a call of suspicious behavior. I guess that guy on the bridge with the camera looked like he was planning an attack. Shout out to Melba Black for the rowing introduction and getting me on that chase boat.
