Essay by Richard Brill
2006 AVP Crocs Professional Volley Ball Tour
Presented by Cushman & Wakefield
Coney Island
August 17-20 2006
Women’s
Games!
Many
hours of hard work went into creating this photo essay for people to enjoy, so
please respect my copyright!
Volleyball is a spectacular sport to watch
and even more amazing sport to photograph.
This was my first attempt at covering such
a large 4 day event under the hot summer sun trekking around in the sizzling
sand but well worth it.
During my life, I met and photographed
everyone from President George W. Bush to Howard Stern.
It was my honor and privilege to meet so
many cool people dedicated to the sport of Volleyball.
People that strive to be the very best at
what they do!
AVP signed a 3 year contract so they will
be back next in
Don’t miss it!
