Okay sports fans here's the deal.
Weather here in Las Vegas is very weird. Yes I want to shoot a game no matter what!!
Rain, wind to the tune of gusts of 50 mph. Was that to deter me, no way, no how, I was going to shoot a game this fine day. Well at times I couldn't hold the monopod, the gusts were that bad. And oh yeah cold too.

For this 75 year old dude I was going to brave the elements. Kind of glad I did. Lens were slow to focus.
Using the D4 with 200-500 5.6 to slow half way thru the half. Went with the 80-400 4.5-5.6 for the extra stop, used that on the D4 and D500.

Here are the results..

You're now the "Bad Weather Shooter"! Good action photos with no hint of weather.

Nice shots.

I am not sure that any weather in LV can qualify as cold, buts its all relative.
