Young Blood
The Chicago Fire Soccer Club had their home opener yesterday, with a 3-2 win over Sporting Kansas City. It was great to be back in Toyota Park! Aside from the two goals that were a result of poor Chicago defending I was very impressed with the team. Though I am always cautious of making judgments about the Fire early on but, I think this team will turn a lot of heads.
Chicago Fire midfielder, Patrick Nyarko, on the result:
“We came out and wanted to set a tone for the rest of the year here in our first home game. We want to get as many points as we can early and at home because it will go a long way to help us down the road in our playoff push.”
“Last year we were very tentative to open the season, we played well, but weren’t getting results, so this year the emphasis is on results – we’re going to do whatever it takes. Even though we won we’re still not comfortable with the way we gave up those two goals. We’re going to go back to the drawing board and work on it – we can’t give any team, any chances - especially at home. We need to make this place a fortress against teams that come and play here, and we need to earn as many points as possible at home.”
Section 8 Chicago spent $2,000 on large flags. They are beautiful and a lot of fun to wave.

LomoEye
I borrowed my friends Lomography Fisheye (you can get them cheaper on Amazon). I was very pleased with it, I have always loved the barrel distortion of the fisheye. Here are the worth while shorts from my first rolls. I ordered a Fisheye No. 2 should be in my hands by the end of the week!

Second Roll Kodak 800
A few years back my Canon Elan7e refused to shoot under 1/125th, I tested it out with a few shots on this roll be rewound it back in the cartridge. Fast forward four years I found this roll in my camera bag and popped into the fisheye, forgetting the rolls history. Thus I got a couple double exposures.
