Shot my first semi pro game of 2024 Saturday evening. Close game with a lot of lead changes. However, the home team prevailed! A few of my favorites from the game follow. Very poor lighting - of course! Shot with my Z9 paired with a Tamron 35-150. Shot at 1/800, ISO 5000-6400, +2.7 EV, aperture as wide open as the lens would allow. Usually close to f2.8. A little Topaz cleanup to boot. Oh how I miss college lighting!!!

AWESOME as usual Rick. For poor lighting you did well. Keep posting look forward to it. I haven't shot anything in 3-4 months (except one volunteer shoot I did for a local city that I shoot 12-15 events a year). My diabetic feet neuropathy is getting to me as well as my knees. I am looking forward to spring sports starting and hopefully I can get out and shoot some (Baseball, Softball, Girl's Soccer, and some Track&Field events) . Time will tell. Thanks BE SAFE!!

Thanks, Tom. Sorry to hear that which you are dealing with. Hopefully spring will help with fun distractions and perhaps a little relief!

I think next Tuesday starts our spring sports. I am ready I think. I don't have to move too much for my Softball, Baseball, and Soccer so I will make it work some how. Thanks BE SAFE!!
