For those of you still reading this, a.k.a. almost no one, I am indeed working on a new version of this site.... new site launch to be determined at a later date.

Wow, an update...!

Needed somewhere to put this:

My Macbook monitor hasn't been calibrated correctly yet, so I have no idea if these colors are off or not.

June 6, 2007 (Remember D-Day)
...and floor end-of-year party:


Some of the residents of De Neve A3 pose for a group shot. Shot with a D2HS with 17-35mm on tripod with two Rilex Hero 24 strobes using large softboxes.

Might do captions later.

Finally, it works!

As you can see, the recent appearance of posts from the end of September show that Anti-Content's been a bit busted for a month... well, I guess it works now...

When I rediscover "spare time", Anti-Content will return with an all-new site design, so sit tight for a little while longer.

Saratoga High Vs. Live Oak (Varsity), September 8.



This was the first serious use my TC-20E 2x teleconverter got; I was more or less forced to stop down a bit, so we're not going to be seeing any of those nice, blurry backgrounds here. I broke a lot of the "rules" in these shots besides "no deep DOF".



Nick May punting.



Jeff Frederickson going up for the ball.



Alex Lagemann trying to break free.



Live Oak during a time-out.



Kevin Siezcharek (hopefully I spelled that right) pondering his next move as he faces off against a Live Oak player.



Didn't we have more cheerleaders last year?



Breaking the banner at start of the third quarter.



Brian Dowdle waiting on the sideline to play.



I liked the interaction between Live Oak's No. 44 and the group of Saratoga players here.



Saratoga No. 84 and Jeff Frederickson express their frustration after No. 84 fails to complete a pass.



I liked the interaction between Jeff Frederickson and the Live Oak player here, even though ball carrier Kevin Siezcharek is still in the background.



Alex Lagemann fumbling after returning a kick-off.



Brian Dowdle about to get crunched.



Kevin Siezcharek.



Saratoga's number 33 after getting taken down.



Alex Lagemann running towards the sideline after scoring a touchdown.



I liked the look on Kevin Siezcharek's face as Live Oak's 41 reaches for him.



Keon Ghafouri after diving into the endzone.



Sean Casserly signalling to go for two as Kevin Siezcharek listens for the coaches' call.



Live Oak fumbling the ball with ~60 seconds to go.



Saratoga Falcons after their slim victory, 22 to 21, against Live Oak.
