Football Friday Night

This last Friday night I went to the football game. I was excited to try out my new camera lens that I bought this summer. The weather was absolutely perfect. Unfortunately I got there a little later than I intended, so I didn't get a chance to take as many pictures of the band during pregame as I had hoped. I did get a nice variety of photographs, however. I hope to put some of these pictures up on my website within the next week or so. I've always been impressed with the Franklin Heights' band. They work so hard, and it shows.

I like music a lot, but I am not a musician by any means. My mother was a concert pianist, and she tried very hard to get me to learn to play. I was more interested in being outdoors and playing sports to bother with sitting and practicing for hours and hours. Maybe if I'd had a chance to learn to play the drums instead of the piano, I might have become a musician. I’ve always loved to tap and bang on things ever since I was little. My mother never seemed to pick this up that learning the drums might've been the way to get me interested in music. Whenever I go to a concert that has a band, I always seem to be watching the drummer.

I haven't taken many photos at school in the recent last few years because I was a yearbook advisor for so long, and I took lots and lots of pictures. For several years, I attended every sport offered at Franklin Heights to shoot photos for the yearbook. I got a bit tired of taking so many pictures. But now there's been enough time, and I think I'm ready to start using my camera again.
