Sport

 Firstly, my apologies for posting late, time and the Easter holidays threw me a bit.

Sport! Yay! My confession is that I'm a Rugby League fan - yes unusual for a born and bred Melburnian but there you have it. I like taking photos at the game, but not always as it disconnects me from watching it as intently as normal. Still its nice to have gear that lets me take reasonable action shots.

Having said that, I'm not rapt with this lot. I think I thought I had more good shots to choose from than I really did. Also being a night game and trying to shoot fast, meant I was pushing my camera and lens to their limits - so the pics are grainier than I'd like.

This shot is 'the run' - wind up those legs and run into (well, preferably straight past!) the opposition.

Next, we have 'the crash' - league is a hugely physical game involving lots of collisions. I feel this shot  illustrates that....

And lastly we have 'the hot'. Whilst it is sexist and a bit uncool to admit, it must be said that this player (Cooper Cronk) is one of the reasons some of  us ladies like the game ;)  He is a gun player, so intense and involved in the game that even in this tiny rest break, he's still looking and assessing what's happening on the field. We love Coop!!
