About a Month ago I had a Dead on Exposure workshop...
Some cool photographers came from Florida and NYC we had a blast Photographing my Triathlete friend Milo and his Super Fast Bike... BTW it was super Sunny and about 95 degrees outside.
Here are some photo's from the day... Goodtimes



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 Gracie, Igor 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 :)
(05.18.10 @ 12:15 PM)Ohh! Wow! That's what my husband watches on TV, that's crazy. By the way, GRRRREAT PICTURES as always!!!
(05.18.10 @ 01:59 PM)Great stuff Ray- It must have been tough to pick the images to share! The first images of the guy in full guard throwing punches is crazy!

Looks like you had a good time! I never cared for watching tennis on TV, but I can imagine it is a lot better in person - I will have to check it out sometime! And that first shot is WOW...love the mood it sets. Excellence as always Ray!
(04.21.10 @ 11:04 PM)I love tennis! You captured their emotion and personalities well! Great job bro!
(04.21.10 @ 11:06 PM)Wow! Dude, it seems like you took that "Dead on Exposure" workshop with Ray Santana... oh wait...
:) Nice job!
(04.21.10 @ 11:44 PM)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

sweet shot man! What an experience - can't wait to see what you put out at the race in italy!
