More from the game later...

you didnt happen to get a photo of his time at the crease did you??

you would have needed a very fast lens!!:lol:

we might as well enjoy it while we can

...bring on the Ashes!

Good images with the 70-300G. You have a good lens there.

Just think, this is the happiest he's going to be for the next few months

It does look like you've got a good copy of the 70-300 there, for sure.

Cheers

Thanks guys

The lens takes some work to get good results, but can produce a sharp image under decent light. I guess it was just a case of practice makes per... wel practice makes pretty good

As a matter of fact I got an ordinary photo of him being dismissed by Tait. Sadly the crowd had not had time to react when i got this one (note the absence of bails on the stumps) and Freddys face is obscured by the terrible shot he had just played.

well done Steve - you are certainly getting very good results with the G!

Overall on the day what was your % of keepers?

cheers

I can't even work out what type of shot he is trying to play! (and not because of the photo either). Has he heard of a straight bat?

About 40% were sharp enough were keepers, but i struggled to get the best compositions on a lot of shots. Lots of bats and balls in wierd spots and people running everywhere tend to block other players, etc.

I will post a few more from the game soon.

He looked very out of sorts. I hope he lifts for the first test! Be a shame for it to be no-contest.

good shots!
