## Caption

Day 6 of Seahawks Training Camp, and for those of you following, I’m posting a photo a day from camp in an effort to spark the way I “see” through my camera. My work had felt flat after the Super Bowl. Forcing myself to post a different image every day is a way I hold myself accountable to working on my game, similarly to the players on the field preparing for the season ahead.

There were lots of cool football photos to be had, and I captured my fair handful, but if I was really to work on my creative vision, I wanted to make sure to look off the field as well.

The weather is warming up here in Seattle, and as soon as practice was over, the incredible fields crew at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center was already hard at work, repairing turf and applying water to the grass even as players were still wrapping up their workouts.

Some sunshine, backlight, and water sprays made for a visually interesting image, and the figure in the foreground adds depth. This image won’t get the most “likes” but likes are not the purpose of this exercise - working on my photographic vision and trying to make interesting images out of things I see every day are the goal.

As always, thanks for your follows, likes, comments and questions - I’m grateful for all of you who I’ve heard from during this little project.
