Topic: Sports Photography Is Back!

[GillE]

I once said that when the lockdown measures were eased, the thing I was most looking forward to photographing was a game of village cricket on the ground just across a field from where I live. Yesterday evening I got a phone call from the ladies club captain saying the home team was about to go into bat, so I grabbed my camera and raced up there. I didn't have time to mount a super telephoto lens (I had a 200mm lens mounted) and the light was poor, but nevertheless it felt great once more to be taking the sort of photographs I love to take.

Gosh, they look as if they mean business!  Great action shots Gill!

Great photos, but I'm afraid I have as much interest in sport as you have in the band Queen, Gill.

Thanks guys.  Gotta say, Simon, I'm with you when it comes to sports but the drama and physical exertion can make for pleasing photographs.
