So today was a fun day! I was hanging out with the swim team for most of the day and editing for the rest. This mornings practice was at 8 at the old Montreal Olympic stadium. which still impressed me even though i was there the day before with Christy(photos of that romp to be added after my flight to Tai-pei i'm sure I'll have time to edit them on a 13 hour plane ride Here is one though i had to show my dad cause he wanted to see christy http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f353/jtreid/DSC_2714.jpg :P sorry christy) poking around the bio-dome but to actually stand in the arena where gold medals were won was pretty inspiring and just made me think of what an actual honor it is to shoot the deaf Olympics in Taiwan, Perhaps in a few years I'll be shooting for the Olympics and capturing the next Michael Phelps? WHO KNOWS just gotta keep shooting!
Shots from the arena - i was kinda worried about the noise in these but after getting them on my computer i was satisfied with them but i don't think they look as good as the pool shots i did later that evening

Shots from the outdoor pool - Well seeing as my Taekwondo shoot never happened AGAIN( due to a injury) i decided to join the swimmers again since i wanted to get 2 sets with each sport. the only one i'm not sure i can get in is a second bowling one due to ride issues fingers crossed i do!

Deaf Olympics Aug 27-29th - Halifax montreal
Um i'll fix the photos later.. not sure hour to make thumbs and stuff for em now.
Aug-27
So i made it to Halifax without a hitch! First flight of my life down with no pressure problems or flight issues what so ever, which is exactly what everyone said but one never knows. turbulence was minimal( just like being in a car on a windy day). My trip through the airport was fun though, i left my laptop in the security bin >.< a nice security guard came and got me before i was on the plane and i helped a old lady find her gate. Now i have a 3 hour wait for a half hour flight to montreal. Gonna break out my camera now and snap a few around the airport! post em before i take off
Made it safe and sound to montreal. gonna break out the camera and see what i can see. first stop is Harvey's though lets see if there chow is any good
Aug 29
This are pretty busy over here with the training of the athletes but the gap in communication is a little frustrating given that right now i should be shooting the Taekwondo training but they've left me behind for the second time because they keep meeting earlier in a different location then they tell me before they leave and then txt asking where i am. very annoying. Montreal is amazing though i was out with a friend last night exploring the city. i haven't had a chance to romp around with my camera yet but this afternoon we have plans to check out the bio-dome and Notre-dame as well as few other cool places she has in mind, like abandon factories
i should get some cool shots. Here's a couple shots from the bowling practice i made it too. time for another hours sleep!
