January 12, 2013 - AFC Divisional Game - Ravens at Broncos

A game that was predicted to be a tidy home win for the Broncos, featuring two teams known for their sound defensive play, ended up being an offensive blowout for both teams. The Broncos had help from their 169-lb, 5' 5" kickoff returner Trindon Holliday's two return touchdowns, while the Ravens took advantage of the Broncos poor ball handling including a Manning fumble and two interceptions. For me personally the game was a challenge due to the temperature and the crowded sideline, and I had a mix of good luck and not as good. Demaryius Thomas' fourth quarter touchdown (which could have been the game winner) came right to me, while I ignored my hunch about Trindon Holliday's return prowess and missed his record-breaking second return of the game by traveling to the wrong side of the field at the start of the second half. Equipment and finger function were negatively affected by the freezing temperatures. Between the three of us working the game we did make some nice pictures and it was a very cool experience.

December 2, 2012 - Buccaneers at Broncos

Manning and the Broncos clinched the AFC West with four games to play and the Broncos won their seventh game in a row to improve to 9-3. I felt a little looser for this my second NFL game of the season and I had a really decent game. I wasted more time than I thought I would racing up to the 500 level to shoot an overhead shot - it is literally a half-mile or so of walking and escalators to get from the field level up to the nosebleeds. I regretted not bringing a wider lens when I got up there, too, but I am glad I made the picture. All images copyright Getty Images 2012.
