this past thursday me, zack gemmell and ted nieters hopped into a toyota prius at 5-am and headed out to the desert on our way to tucson, arizona to view some photographic gems at the center for creative photography at the university of arizona. after about 8 hours of driving we made it to kim newton's class room, being our former teacher at brooks kim asked us to show his current students our work, which we gladly did after all he did put up with our BDE pictures for a few year. friday and it was time to go view some prints by masters like w.eugene smith, ansel adams, dorothy lange just to name a few, we must have gone through over 300 prints, box after box of images that just blew our minds and like kim said "you see these pictures in books, magazines and online but seeing them up close is something special." ok lets get to the photos as we were sitting over beers at mr smiths favorite watering-hole music and cheers start coming from the streets and we see its a pep rally for the saturday football game. maybe its just me and not having had cheerleading a part of any of my school years but i dont get it and i think im not going to devote any more time trying to get it so here are a few shots of the UofA cheerleaders with their colgate smiles cheering like there is no tomorrow.
