uploaded two albums as a test for this format: WSOP09 06.06.09 and caesars palace 06.07.09.

i’m just hoping to post the better of photos taken as i learn to use this camera to its fullest potential. i attempted to use flickr with aperture2 for sharing and critiquing but the images were so small and compressed after uploading that they were nearly unusable for my purposes. i hope this solution will better preserve the resolution of the photos uploaded.

WSOP09 will feature select photos taken during satellite tournaments, cash games, and final tables over the course of the 6 week World Series of Poker at the Rio. special thanks to my brother and event organizer Harrah’s for giving me this opportunity to shoot the 2009 World Series of Poker.

caesars palace 06.07.09 features select photos taken during a 3 hour walk-around of the casino floor and The Forum Shoppes. there are a few of the frescos, statues, and fountains featured in the mall as well as a 1966 Shelby Cobra on display. a handful of photos of the Pussycat Dolls Lounge are also included. thank you to the dancers and dealers at the PCD Lounge for getting me access behind the gaming tables and especially for being so eager to please and playing up for the camera.
