Ralph, up to his usual shenanigans. (Julie Wheat photo)

It’s Saturday morning, and I’m mere hours away from covering my sixth home game in as many days.

As I try and get my mojo kickstarted, some photos to help ease us into the day.

Click-click, bye-bye

The internet is forever, or at least until you stop paying your website provider.

Longtime local prep sports photographer John Fisken, who put the camera down at the end of the 2024-2025 school year, is divesting himself of his archives as well.

Now a man of leisure, the Diet Coke-fueled paparazzi will permanently shut down his John’s Photos web site in April, ending online access to thousands of images he snapped at Whidbey sports events, as well as some non-sports pics.

So, if you’ve been hankering to get a glossy copy of something he shot, you’ve got about two months left to get crackin.’

After that, the website and the email associated with it (john@johnsphotos.net) go dead, and Fisken will no longer be checking the concurrent Facebook page for messages.

You have been warned…

Gaze upon a collection of random pics

We’re sweeping out the archives.

The pics seen above and below have two things in common.

One, they feature Coupeville athletes or athletic supporters.

And two, they’re some of the last photos sent my way by John Fisken before he took his Diet Coke and went home, ambling off to semi-retirement.

So, with no games today as we wait for district playoff action to kick into full gear starting Thursday, now is a perfect time to slap ’em on the page and let ’em marinate.

“I’m just saying, it feels like we’re being watched…”

Ember Light fires off a serve.

Megan Richter and her junior associate catch a softball game on a sunny day.

The hunt for missing softballs is a never-ending one.

Paul Messner has his eye(s) on you.

Kickin’ up a dust storm on the way to softball glory.

It’s like a scene from The Lion King. Sort of. (Photos by JohnsPhotos.net)

It’s a collection of random photos.

With high school basketball having reached the finish line in Coupeville, we’re cleaning out the leftover pics, so here you go.

Never fear the camera

Apparently, they’re not afraid of losing their souls.

The Coupeville fans and coaches seen in the pics above and below are content to stare right into the camera and risk the chance the paparazzi behind the lens is up to nefarious purposes.

Bravery, thy name is Wolf Nation.
