The temperature topped 91 on Sunday, and there was little breeze to speak of either day. I only stayed half of the day on Sunday as I didn’t feel like dealing with the heat anymore, and I wanted to make it home to catch the series finale of LOST.

I combined both days into one gallery, as I didn’t shoot much on Sunday.

After a long week of doing demolition due to flooding, I opted to go with camera in hand instead of dressing in garb. The weather was perfect, and I had a great day. Here are some selected shots.

One of the photographers at the derby let me use their backdrop for a few shots, and I really appreciated that. I guess that goes to show that people who share an interest such as photography are willing to help out people they have never met before.

This was also one of my first opportunities to shoot with my new Canon 7D body, and I was very pleased. The ability to shoot at higher ISO really made a difference in the indoor derby setting. It was a great weekend, and here are a couple of sample shots.

Each year they do a mock battle where the allies liberate the town from German occupation. They use blanks, and everything that they wear must be proper to the period. It was a great site to see. My friend Ivan started doing reenactments, and I am glad that he told me about this event.

Here are a couple of samples

Everything was planned well, and the staff did a great job. It really didn’t seem like it was a first year convention. They announced at the closing ceremonies that they are going to look into doing it again, so that is good to know, as most everyone there that I talked to said it was one of the new favorite smaller cons that they have attended.

The photo backdrop was well received, and we even ended up shooting some shots for the convention of the GMX girls which they will use for their website and publicity etc. I hope to get the pictures posted within a reasonable amount of time, but I do have over 960 from the weekend to go through. I plan to post smaller versions on the site here, and then put full res versions on flickr if anyone needs a larger format of the images.

Here is what I came up with.
