I’m getting ready to join my team in Moab for the Arches/Canyonlands event next week!  I’m honored and thrilled to have a long time dear friend, and my former boss at Nikon as a member of the team in Moab!  Bill Pekala was the head of Nikon Professional Services for almost 4 decades and there is not a person in the pro community who does not know him and very few Nikon shooters he hasn’t pulled their fat from the fire at some time in their career!!!!  Because Bill was hips deep in running our department he didn’t have a lot of time to shoot, but he always was, and when he got back in practice showed what an excellent shooter he truly was!  I thought I would share just a few images he made when we did one our favorite assignments, the Reno Air Races!

 

Our favorite activity was dawn patrol, getting up before sunrise and shooting the fantastic planes on the tarmac in that great morning light!!!  Here are just a few of his images I had in my files from our previous shoots togetherI know our group in Moab is going to enjoy his company, and learn a lot from him, I always did!!  ….and if you are coming to Moab, get excited!  Enjoy!!

 

 

 

 

I’m honored to get to work with such great shooters, and people as Bill, Jim, and Snake, can’t wait for Wednesday and our opening night!!!

 

Blessings,
