STRIKEFORCE in St Louis, Mo
It all started back at Rilion Gracie Academy my Jiu-Jitsu school where I have been studying for over a year.
When I heard from Chris Gracie, Rilion's wife that Rilion's Nephew Roger Gracie was competing @ STRIKEFORCE I was totally stoked to go.
Rilion Gracie and I went together to meet up with Renzo Gracie, Roger Gracie, Rolles GracieIgor Gracie, and friends. What a blast we had...
Also one of my best buddies Mike Colón and I photographed the event for Gracie Magazine. Here are some shots of the night... Goodtimes

Nice work Uncle Ray! It is cool to see Jacare in the dressing room with Roger, after all the EPIC battles they have had! I kept looking for you on TV, and I thought I saw you once :)

F1 Canadian Grand Prix.
I was just invited to go shoot The Italy Grand Prix @ Monza. Here is a shot I took of Michael Schumacher @ The Canadain Grand Prix a couple of years back. I flew up to photograph this "SICK RACE" when I was still an AP GUY. F1  Associated Press was so good to me in the days... goodtimes
