Hospice Cup - 2020 regatta photographs
I partnered with the Hospice Cup to photograph their annual regatta on September 19th, 2020 to raise money and awareness for Hospice in the Chesapeake Region. Dave Gendell, former editor and founder of Spinsheet Magazine, volunteered his time to operate his 23’ Regulator as the photo boat and escort me to the three different areas near the mouth of the Severn River where boats of different classes were racing. Also onboard were Chris Bowser - a Hospice Cup board member, and Molly Winans - the current editor of SpinSheet. Dave did an excellent job at keeping me in the right place to photograph the boats involved in the regatta amidst difficult conditions. At the start of the races, the wind was blowing a sustained 20-25 knots out of the Northeast and created a 2-3 foot swell when the tide was coming up the bay. The heavy winds and seas created for great sailing conditions and for dramatic photographs of boats ‘heeled’ over showing off their bottom paint.
The photographs below show boats of different classes racing in the three different areas. Prints of these photographs are available for sale using the link below. 50% of the proceeds from each print sale will be donated directly to the Hospice Cup to further their efforts of raising funds and awareness for Hospice care in the Chesapeake Region.
