Wake up. Work 8:30 to 5:15. Come home. Eat dinner. Sit at computer and work on processing photos and building my business. Yup, that has pretty much been my schedule for the past two months.
One of my favorite things to do with action shots is create sequences. I have had trouble justifying taking the time to create one since I have such a full schedule right now. Thanks to Jamie at Cowbelly I was inspired to make an animated GIF in Photoshop. This is Amanda Jetter from Cincinnati Gymnastics Academy hitting her standing arabian on beam during the Junior Finals. She does it really well by the way.
This is the first time I have ever tried to make an animated GIF in Photoshop. It actually worked! I didn’t spend much time tweaking the quality settings or anything like that. It was quick and dirty just to see what I could do. I think it looks pretty cool! Check out the blog post that inspired me to try this in Photoshop for the first time. Thanks Jamie!

So they are finally here…almost. 
I have started to process some of the 1,500 photos I took (As in I saved 1,500 photos. I took about 3,000.) from August 12th through the 15th.
I am starting with the Junior women’s prelim session and going alphabetically down the line. I have been able to add about 30 new photos per night so you can check out the galleries each morning for a little morning pick-me-up or you can wait until I announce that I have completed the uploads for each session (you’ll have to follow along on Facebook or Twitter if you want to know when that happens).
And a big “Thank You!” to all of the girls who are some of the most amazing subjects a photographer could ask for!
