Plum Krazy's Too



Dancers crowd the floor at Plum Krazy's Too in Kernersville.

Quentin Richardson



Quentin Richardson is an Iraq War veteran we did a story on. There was a church around the corner from his house that had flags out front in honor of Veterans Day, so we went over there and took this picture.

Jay at work



Jay is a self-employed housepainter. I took this one using a bounced flash.

Jay Ovittore



Democratic Party congressional candidate Jay Ovittore (right) is running against Rep. Howard Coble. Here he is in Burlington about to speak to the Senior Democrats of Alamance County. Yes!Weekly reporter Jordan Green (with his back to the camera) followed Jay around for a day.

Gary Koonce again



Here's another picture I took of Greensboro folk singer Gary Koonce at the arboretum. I think it looks like a 1960s album cover. You can check out Gary's music at http://www.reverbnation.com/gary

Hammerin' Hank



Here's baseball great Hank Aaron at the groundbreaking for the Winston-Salem Warthogs' new stadium.

Stu!



Here's Stu!, one of the MCs in Endless Mic. I took this using a Nikon D100 and Quantaray 70-300mm telephoto lens @ 1/15sec with a flash from the back of the club. F stop was F/8.

Endless Mic



Endless Mic, a Chapel Hill hip hop group, performed at Greene Street in Greensboro Sunday. The rock band/rap group in an alley is a cliche, but when you've only got a few minutes before they go on stage, it's the best you can do.
