Still plugging away ...Keeping busy..Working every weekend..

February 24, 2017

I picked a few messages asking if I was retired the past couple of days and I was pretty confused till I was told not being at the Golden Gloves registration and I guess some lake shots I have been posting. Let me tell you I'm around for a little longer doing that photog thing.

The reason I had to walk away from the Chicago Golden Gloves was very simple if you check out my schedule and committments I had already made since early January.

Worlds record 2017 "Ice Wheelie " attempt cancelled ..

January 28, 2017

Normally when I get a cancellation it's because of a promoter , fighter maybe Athletic commission , to day it was nature. Ryan Suchanek was scheduled once again to do work on ice but due to ice conditions ( its been a tough year lake activities on Wisconsin lakes ) the event is being rescheduled for late February, 2017. Seem fitting to do a repost of FEBRUARY 7th , 2016.

Below is from 2016

On this Sunday February 7th, 2016 , your hero's toss a pigskin and ran around on grass ...My hero's of this Sunday scrapped a engine around their legs and went One hundred and thirty Five (135) plus miles per hour ....Did I mention they were on "Ice" ? ...Oh yeah, also there's that thing about being on one wheel ...

Here's a few quick pick images of the World Class best of the best breaking World Guinness records at Lake Koshkonong , Wisconsin just a few hours ago. I'm not really sure on the official times but I believe ;

Ryan Suchanek "Stoppie record" of 252" @ 86 MPH

Wheelie 136 MPH (Please note, needs to be checked and confirmed)

Ice Fishing Time of the year starts on Lake Beulah

December 24, 2016

Friday December 23rd , 2016 the Men of East Troy , Wisconsin came out and tested the 2016 winters fishing. There were a few souls that came out on Thursday but I didnt venture out till Friday. About 33 degree's with eight inches of ice, if someone snag a 40 inch Northern Pike I didn't see it. But Russ caught a three inch Blue Gill , not exactly a keeper but it was the first catch of the 2016 winter.

Cheers, Tomba

What Tomba has been doing during the past month ....

October 27, 2016

Over the years, several times I have tried had tried posting a "image a day " and it just never seems to workout with maintaining, life and other photo projects seem to get in the way. I thought it would be fun (for me anyway) to look back over recent weeks and pick out my favorites of different recent photo sessions.
