December 13, 2010 - Blackhawks at Avalanche



Dan Winnik, who did not get a point on this Duchene goal, definitely helped keep Patrick Sharp from clearing the puck.



Blackhawks winger Jack Skille celebrates a goal in the first period. The game was either tied or a one-goal difference until the empty netter at the end of the third.



Greg Mauldin is pretty electric on the ice. Scoring threat all the time.

Byfuglien ties the score at 2 a piece late in the third period.



This green suit guy seemed to have padded his shorts and he was unsuccessful at getting Bernie's attention. Creepster.



Liles bends the stick.

November 20, 2010 - Kansas State at Colorado


Rodney "Speedy" Stewart on a 51-yard touchdown run. Whipped the shorter lens around just in time to focus and grab a nice shot.


Senior day, and Jimmy Smith wore a Lei to "honor" the new coach, Brian Cabral.

Ralphie drools.

November 19, 2010 - Rangers at Avalanche


Can't help but like this kid. Two assists and a goal in the 5-1 win over the popular eastern conference team.


Anderson was very good in his return, stopping many shots, giving up only one soft goal.

November 17, 2010 - Sharks at Avalanche

Sharks captain Joe Thornton is upended in the Sharks 4-3 OT loss to the Avalanche.

November 15, 2010 - Blues at Avalanche

The crowd, the team, and Duchene himself were all so happy about Duchene's first NHL fight.

The young superstars joke about the bout after the 6-3 win.

November 14, 2010 - Chiefs at Broncos


Spencer Larson with a nice 14 yard rush for the first down.


I did not get a picture of the snuff. But I noticed Todd Haley was not having a great time along the sidelines. Here, he looks for a reversal of a reversal of what was ruled, after viewing the replay, a nice TD reception.


Tebow was used for two red zone plays, resulting in two touchdowns. I saw them but the shots weren't very good. Here he fights for a first down, and was successful.

Darryl Loyd celebrates a nice catch.


Loyd looks for a few yards after a reception.

Dwayne Bowe celebrates for his fantasy football owners. The score had no bearing on the game at all. Note the empty, front-row seats behind him.

November 13, 2010 - Iowa State at Colorado


Iowa State had about one impressive drive, after their starting quarterback limped off the field with an apparent leg injury. Here a receiver acts like he is breaking a tackle before he falls down.

Starting QB Austen Arnaud got the benefit of a "forward progress" call before losing the football in a play that wuld have resulted in 7 points against.

October 23, 2010 - Kings at Avalanche



New guys on the team to make pictures of, like Jonas Holos, right.



A quick meeting of the referees would send a LA Kings player to the box for a 5-minute major.



Cumiskey messes around with Kings star Dustin Brown.

October 23, 2010 - Texas Tech at Colorado



Perfect light, near "upset," good fans, but nothing particularly inspiring happened for my lenses. Still a classic fall day at the stadium.

October 9, 2010 - Colorado State at Air Force

Air Force, ranked #25 in the AP poll going into this game - is having a great season. I'd never shot at Falcon Stadium so was a little out of my element, but it worked out. Air Force won easily, and improved to #23 in the poll with the win over the Rams.

October 7, 2010 - Blackhawks at Avalanche

Opening night win for the boys in burgundy and blue. Sakic, Forsberg, and Roy (and the rest of the 1995-1996 Stanley Cup winning Avalanche team) paid a nice visit.





September 28, 2010 - Dodgers at Rockies

Rockies were eliminated with a disappointing loss to the Dodgers. Rookie infielder Chris Nelson made a nice play on the infield.




Tulowitzki struck out to end the Rockies' playoff hopes. 4 games left to play, none of any consequence.

September 24, 2010 - Giants at Rockies

Giants are playoff bound, thanks to these guys. Lincecum and Wilson 2-hit the Rockies and would seal the division win on the last day of the regular season.


September 18, 2010 - Hawaii at Colorado

Perfect light on this early afternoon game. No conference rivalry or any particular players to focus on, but I had a decent game.

September 15, 2010 - Padres at Rockies




At this point, there was a chance. It was fun to watch the boys, you know, try. Go Giants.
