First sports photography like a pro :)

January 31st, 2005

This is a game between No1 and No 22, but the game and results didn’t show that big difference as much as the ranking difference. Duke beats Maryland by merely 3 points (60-57). Since I equiped myself like a pro, I have not trouble sitting inside the photographer area in Duke Cameron Indoor Stadium.

Special thanks to the mono-pod, it is much easier to carry my trusty 70-200L2.8 lens with 10D+ED8 battery pack. But it is still very tiring after one hours of photoshooting, and shooting basketball is very hard to capture the “moment”. Now I understand how those AP photographers get paid so well (because their photos are really different!)

but anyway, here is my first attempt to pretending to be a serious basketball photographer, enjoy.
