Olympic Fever | Arizona photographer

Are you watching the olympics?  Have you been as riveted to the t.v. as I have?  Hanging onto Bob Costas every word about events I never knew existed.   My 4 year old now thinks that we should all go skiing with guns on our backs in case we run into any bad guys.  But more than the actual events themselves, I love hearing about all the back stories of the athletes.  What they have overcome or sacrificed makes you want them to succeed even more.  As I was watching the mens downhill event where the difference between the bronze and gold medal was .09 seconds, I started thinking about what can happen in .09 seconds.  I immediately went to the click of my camera.  Because that is what I strive to do.  Catch those fleeting moments that pass in the blink of an eye.  The difference between having a memory forever and missing it completely.

It felt like .09 seconds.

julie sherman - Cute analogy. And yes, it does go by fast. Too crazy to think my son is 13 1/2 months old.
