Wow, another Masters has come and gone and after finally getting some much needed sleep and giving my wife a break from my kids (she had the hard job all week) I finally had some time to update. Better late than never, I guess.
The Masters is always a great experience. We even had the joy of experiencing a new buffet style cafeteria, courtesy of Augusta National. Ok, I still had to have my daily intake of pimento cheese sandwiches. (just kidding)
I also enjoyed meeting new photographers and seeing some old faces. Jack Gruber claimed he was still jinxed after Sunday's finish. I'm sure he nailed every shot.
Anyway, here are a few of my favorites. I tried to go for an edit of images that was somewhat different. Also, please check out my hidden gallery "masters2008," with more images. link is at the bottom of the page.
Thanks for looking.
I'm a staff photographer at The State in Columbia, South Carolina. I have shot sports professionaly for over 15 years. In that time I've covered everything from preps to pro sports.
