Well its official. Antonio Brown is being traded from the Pittsburgh Steelers to the Oakland Raiders. He’s taking his extremely good football skills and over-heated ego to the west coast. He was also quick with his giant smile. It was fun watching him play over the last seven years while I covered the team. I wish him the best.

Last Sunday night’s game was enjoyable, at least for me. The weather was warm (for December), there was a lot of action, high scoring, and I didn’t get hurt. I only have a couple more home games to cover before the season is done….unless the Steelers have some playoff games at home. Here is a photo of Antonio Brown I captured last weekend. This was right after he scored a 28-yard touchdown in the second quarter.

My football season is over with the end of the Steelers playoff run. I’m sure I’ll share photos from this season with you from time to time, at least until next season. With that said, here is a photo of Antonio Brown from last Saturday’s game. Of the remaining teams, I’m pulling for the Patriots.

How about it? Are you ready for this weekend’s NFL Playoff games? I am!! I have all my camera gear ready for the Steelers vs. Jaguars game. The big question for the Steelers is whether or not Antonio Brown will play. I took this photo of him a few games ago. I hope you have a good week and weekend.

Everyone knows I’m not a Steelers fan, but I can see why Steelers fans get frustrated with the offense at times. They (Bryant, James and Rogers) seem to drop more passes then they catch. The only consistent receiver on the team is Antonio Brown…just Automatic. He catches everything thrown his way including this acrobatic catch with Packers’ Davon House draped all over him.

Last week he didn’t behave very well on the sidelines. This week he was better and had some big plays. Unfortunately for Steelers’ fans, Antonio and the rest of the offense didn’t have a great game. This photo was taken towards the end of the game when the Steelers were trying to make a comeback. That was before the 5th (back breaking) interception.

I hope you have a great weekend. I’m working hard at enjoying mine. Today’s photo is of the great Antonio Brown. I took this last November in Cleveland on a very cold game day. The Steelers won the game 24-9, but that score is deceiving. The game wasn’t as close as that score. It could have easily been 40-9. The Browns just looked terrible.

#84 Doing What He Does
I don’t have anything specific to say tonight. I don’t feel very creative or insightful. So I’m falling back on a happy photo of Antonio Brown. I took this photo in Cleveland last fall. The Steelers easily beat the Browns and I got some great photos that day.

Antonio Brown
I took this photo of Antonio Brown last Sunday during the game against the Chiefs. I liked how this turned out with the 3D type appearance and the intense look of concentration on his face. I don’t know about you, but he’s the best thing on the Steelers team.

I had a great experience today. I was given the opportunity to photograph the Pittsburgh Steelers and Detroit Lions joint practice at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe Pennsylvania. I’ll also be shooting their preseason game on Friday night, but capturing images of the practice was cool. It’s a different environment from the games and it was great getting to experience it.
As most people know, I’m a Lions fan. Unfortunately, watching the teams practice against each other today, showed me how much better the Steelers are compared to the Lions. I’d like to say it was the other way around, but…. That’s just not the case. The Steelers looked better in just about every drill. I’ll just have to hope this practice wasn’t an accurate reflection of how the Lions season will play out.
About this photo: As you can guess, it is the great Antonio Brown from today’s practice. It looks like a studio photo with the clean, clear background. But that’s just how it came out with a cloudless sky today. It’s not the typical sports photo, which is why I like it. What do you think? Do you like or dislike it?

39 Days until the start of the NFL preseason. Anyone else ready?
I took all these photo last season at Heinz Field covering the Steelers for the media.
Normally off the ball action doesn’t get much photography attention. On this specific play, I was following Antonio Brown down the field snapping photos as he went. I loved the intensity of both players in this picture.
By the way, Antonio vs. DJ wasn’t even a close match up. Antonio had 17 catches for 284 yards. He ran wild all over the field and had his way with DJ.

Me just prior to the game.
I don’t think I’ve ever been around someone who smiles as much as Antonio Brown. Seriously, every time I see him in person prior to games, during the games, between plays, during plays, after the games, etc…. He is always smiling!
Either he is a huge fake, which I doubt, or he just enjoys his life. I can’t claim to be his friend, we’ve exchanged words in short interactions, but he doesn’t even know my name. But my gut tells me he’s just a good guy, who is always happy. And my gut is usually right.
This is another photo from the graffiti scene in the Eastern Market District of Detroit. This one was painted/created by the talented Malt. Malt is a self-taught artist who is based in Detroit. As par of the 2012 Detroit Beautification Project, he painted a number of large-scale murals in the area. You can see more of his work on his website: http://brownbagdetroit.com

Here is one of my photos from last night’s Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Indianapolis Colts game at Heinz Field. This specific photo is of Antonio Browns catching a touchdown pass from Ben Roethlisberger with 8:33 left on the clock in the 2nd quarter. Colts’ CB Greg Toler played good defense, but Antonio caught the pass anyway.
As many people know, I am not a fan of either team. But I enjoyed photographing the game because of all the scoring and interesting plays.

Here is another picture from last Sunday’s game. As everyone knows, I am not a Steelers fan, since my favorite team is the Lions. But I have to admit, Antonio Brown is a great player. He is exciting, dynamic, and just fun to watch.
If you look closely, you can see QB Ben Roethlisberger in the background. Antonio has a long run after the pass from Big Ben.

Last weekend we spent time in Indianapolis with some great friends hanging out, running a half marathon, eating great dinners, visiting the zoo and just laughing. It was a great weekend and the Indy Zoo was nice. We got a chance to meet this friendly guy.
P.S….we also got some nice quality time with my uncle, aunt, cousins, and 2nd cousins before we left Indy. It was wonderful spending some time with all of them as well.
