real good man. the only thing im curious about is this one:
it's almost as if you're showing off an empty finger (even though it's the wrong hand)
Ha. Good point. They were already sitting in those seats and we had been with them for 6 hours. I got lazy

Run into any issues shooting at the game?
Not after we got in. Getting in with the gear was a little tricky. Even though the website said that we can take anything that fits in a 16x16x8 bag, they kept asking me how long my lenses were... haha. After a while there was a long line and the manager just said "look at all these people waiting, just let him go."
FMers usually laugh at tilting as it is usually best the "CL special" photographer's skill set has to offer, but I think your tilting shots work because of the leading lines you include in them. Especially #4, #14 a little less ( the open sky adds to it as opposed to lines) and #1 uses the crisp doorway-esque shot.
Do you intentionally set up tilts with leading lines or is it more of a subconscious thing you don't even realize looks better do you without having to think about it? I guess I'm curious as to how you digest a shot like that when creating the image.
#13. The girl's head and the pole sticking out? Come on now.
#18 My favourite. Love the lighting, intimacy and overall atmosphere.
Question for you sir... on some shots with the couple looking (#7, #15) at one another and such, do you tell them ahead of time to do that as they walk?
I like #4 too. How do you enable them to be that engaging? Do you talk/joke to them as you shoot?
Love the idea and the execution! My only comment would be that on number 13 the pole is coming out of her head. It would be perfect if you moved them a little to the right in the center of the two poles. It is a very little thing though. Love them all.
