All of the images in this gallery
are of sporting events. Whether they are Air shows, Tennis, Soccer,
or Chess (I know, I know, Chess and Air shows don't quite qualify
as sports, but they fit in my gallery!).
Sports photography is difficult sometimes, but
can be very rewarding! The difficulty lies in getting the shots that
are really unique and are quite full of motion. It is easy to take
a shot of someone running with a football, but to catch the moment
that they catch the ball or to get the angle to see the expression
on a golfers face as they Tee Off on the 18th is much more difficult!
I enjoy shooting sports more so because it allows
me to practice a lot of varying styles and techniques. Most of the
time when I am shooting sports it is more for my own enjoyment rather
then on assignment and this allows me to really play with the way
that I shoot, since I don't have to worry about getting a specific
shot or a specific player or look.
