Serendipity: UC Berkeley Mascot
OSKI HAMS IT UP
What seems like a mundane moment can turn into a unique opportunity. This is Oski, the University of California Golden Bears mascot, at a basketball game. During player warm-ups, most photographers pass the time by catching up on the latest technology and gossip. As we stood and waited for the game to start, Oski laid down on the court in front of us. I seized the opportunity by grabbing a camera and getting down to his level to shoot. He started hamming it up like a supermodel. The photo ran on the cover of Sports Illustrated. —TH
