Making a picture at a football game

It was sunny all day, but started to rain 2 hours before the game (Western Michigan's first home game of the season) And then it stopped a few minutes before the game, sun came out. 

When I saw this sunset happening at the Waldo Stadium, I still had rain gear and cover on all my equipments. 
I always want to make some pictures at football games that are not about the game actions. I think this will be a recent one that will make me happy for a while. Well, at least, till the next game.

Kid Rock, my first time covering a big name concert

Saturday, I finally had a chance to photograph my first big name concert. 
It was Kid Rock. 
I have to be honest that I don't really know his music and I use "I'm a foreigner" as an excuse.

Arriving at the Allegan County Fair two hours early, and got stuck in parking traffic for almost 45 minutes. And I still have to wait for the warming up artists to finish for an hour. 

In between those times, I had the security warning me not to take a single photo of the spectator or the stage before the concert start. And I was only allowed to photograph 3 songs.

It was still a great experience of learning how to work in this kind of situation and trying to get most (best) pictures out of a limited time period of being there.
