 
Faith and Fear in Flushing made its debut on Feb. 16, 2005, the brainchild of two longtime friends and lifelong Met fans. Greg Prince discovered the Mets when he was 6, during the magical summer of 1969. He is a Long Island-based writer, editor and communications consultant. Contact him here. Jason Fry is a Brooklyn writer whose first memories include his mom leaping up and down cheering for Rusty Staub. Check out his other writing here. Got something to say?

A Taste of Summer
This is a peek into Shea Stadium circa summer 2008 as it is a peek into the talent of David G. Whitham, an incredibly gifted photographer of baseball and everything else (which is how we like to rank life around here). I met David through my friend Sharon late in the season and he’s been kind enough to share some of his work with us for occasional posting through the interminable winter months. For a better, more panoramic view of David’s Mets photography, visit the dgwPhotography site here. 7 comments to A Taste of Summer |

Did you have to pick a picture from that game?
Dude was like 1-8 at Shea this past season. Avert your eyes from the identifiable details of any given game.
Greg,
Bet the attendance was announced as over 50,000.
As a matter of fact, 53,534. No kidding.
There's really only one thing truly marring the beauty of this shot, and that's the monstrosity looming beyond the outfield walls.
Hi Greg, Know how I can get a hold of Mr. Whitham? I' d like a copy of one or two shots……..
Jack,
Send me your contact info and I will pass it along.
Thanks,
Greg
