No, not that track. ; That comes later this month. ; I'm talking about Track and Field. ; Had beautiful light and air last night and took advantage by photographing a high school track and field event. ; All photos taken with a Nikon D70 and 70-200VR f/2.8 lens. Preparing for the race. ; It's all about the psych-music Hurdles 1500mm Running with baton during a relay race Paul? ; Is that you? ; Nah... Discus throw Light was very directional and "clean" for lack of a better word. ; Wait until you see what I photograph this weekend. ;
Great set, Scott. ; I like the determined expressions on the last three. Here in Indianapolis in May, "the track" means only one thing: ; The Indy 500!
That I do know, Dennis. ; Things kick off this weekend there, right? ; Will you be going to any of the events? If there's one think you can count on at a sporting event is great facial expressions. ; Most of the running shots where taken at 70mm (105mm cropped) as I was that close.
No, IMS opens for on track events /next/ weekend. The month isn't the event it once was... Sad really!
As Mark said, the "30 Days in May" has been reduced to four days of practice (starting May 15) and two days of qualifying. ; Nonetheless, I hope to get to at least one day of practice and then return for the free ZZ Top concert on Carb Day. ; (In between, I'll be at Star Wars Weekend!)
Nice work Scott! ; I really like the facial expressions... they really show the focus and determination of the athlete.
