Photos of the Day:
9:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. ASU campus--> We're going to be running a story about young mothers that are also college students. The idea was to have a large group photo, but that predictably fell through...I could only get a couple of women with their kids together at one time.
It's obvious from these next photos that kids love me...
2:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. Tolleson--> Where there's smoke, there's fire...I chased down the first brush fire of the season today between shoots...This one took me to 109th Avenue and Baseline. The cops had the scene shut down so nobody could get too close. I did what I could.
Those are 30-foot flames you're looking at, people.
This helicopter was picking up water from a local pond. It was pretty cool to watch.
4:30 p.m. - 5:15 p.m. Phoenix--> A local dance instructor (the gal on the left) is teaching a Phoenix bartender a salsa dance for an upcoming charity dance competition among Valley bartenders dubbed Dancing with the Bars.
8:00 p.m. - 9:30 p.m. Phoenix--> The Trunk Space hosted the 999 Eyes Freakshow. The guy at the bottom of this frame is sticking his tongue into a metal fan.
As the grand finale, one of the characters launched a ginormous fire ball into the air.
The Gin Blossoms were the other big name band there Saturday night.
And there was a skateboard ramp there as well.

It's a funny thing when a half-naked woman walks into a crowded room...Look at the contrast in faces on the guy in the white T-shirt sitting at the end of the runway and the lady in the crowd standing off to the right of the model....Hilarious. (Click on photo to enlarge)
This guy was adorable. I found him sleeping in his Union Army tent and started snapping away. He woke up when I got a little too close...
So he wanted me to get a picture of him outside, where he told me all about the history of the Buffalo soldiers; African-American soldiers that fought the Native Americans when settlers were "taming" the West.
I'm told that when the students are massaging the horses and the lactic acid is getting worked out of their muscles, the horses chomp and lick for some reason. I thought it was pretty funny to see a horse sticking out its tongue.
