Some Cheetahs - Raiders Photos

Postby Cathus » Mon Jul 13, 2009 2:18 am

Well, that's the home season over with. Thanks for the opportunity to try out American Football photography. It's been really great to get back into the game after an absense of 20 years when I used to play (& coach).

If I can get a dozen photos I'm really happy with in a game where I shoot 300-400 then it's a good day & judging by some of the results so far I'm really pleased.
As usual, click on the pics to show them full size. I'll have the rest on my website later in the week (or it might be next week as I've got a busy week ahead of me)

The first two are examples of shots I'd place amongst my best of the day, if not the season...

I was really pleased with this shot, you'd never guess I was standing behind you lot when it was taken.

I have no idea what was happening here but thought someone would be able to take the piss out of someone.

And finally,
don't you hate it when, at a crucial moment, your equipment fails & misses the vital action....
