Well done, Tom. Good to see you out and about again. Perhaps just try a different approach to sports shooting. Use chairs and stools and just get what you can, but enjoying being out.
You are right. I have thought about that day before yesterday. I have a 200-500mm f/5.6 that use for all my outside shooting. So I can be almost anywhere and get full framed shots. I know Jules does have a stool he uses for soccer and I think if I keep shooting sports I am going to purchase one. Yes just getting out in the fresh air even when it's hot is awesome. Thanks BE SAFE!!

Welcome back! Good shots, my favorite is the play at first. You've got the defender, runner and ball in flight.
I am glad to be back. Appreciate the kind words. Hoping to shoot more real soon. Thanks BE SAFE!!

Hi all my Hog friends! Hope everyone is well today. After 6 months not shooting anything I finally got out to shoot some baseball. A little rusty but at least I was out. I will say my feet still hurt (Diabetic neuropathy kicking in). Shot some from dugout and sitting front row first base side. I ask coaches for help letting kids and parents know to look on MaxPreps.com to see all the photos and both coaches did that form. Just posted yesterday on Max and have already sold some photos. I need to probably if I don't start selling more I will probably quite sport photography (which I LOVE SO MUCH) hurts to think about it. Going to buy a drone, at least that way I can fly to whatever I am photographing and do it sitting. Here are some photos I took. Let me know what you think. Thanks BE SAFE!!

I have not posted any photos for quite a while. Thought it was about time to post some of the stuff from the last few weeks, including basketball, baseball, softball, tennis, track and golf. Just a small sampling of each. The osprey is thrown in just for fun as they nest adjacent to the baseball field and fly across the field during games.
These are real nice photos btbg!! Not posting for a while, looking at these you definitely need to post a lot more sport photos. Thanks and BE SAFE!!

I have used Topaz Photo AI for 5-6 months and I really love how good it works. I am a sport photographer for MaxPreps.com. It has saved SO MANY photos for My Max galleries. They are very strict on what they will accept for putting online. I think they have a free trial offer. See what you think. Thanks BE SAFE!!

Getting back into photographing arena football. I had forgotten how much I both enjoy the game and like to photograph it. From on field interactions with players and coaches, it is just plain fun!!
Shot with a Z9 paired with the Tamron 35-150 f2-f2.8. 1/1000, f3.5 with ISO 3200-5000.
First two games I carried both a 24-70 f2.8 and a 70-200 f2.8.
The 35-150 made it much easier to move around the stadium!

Hi Gang:
Sorry for the delay on being on here but been super busy shooting softball and baseball.
These shots were taken with a Nikon D4 paired with my trusty 200-500 5.6 lens.
1/3200 at 5.6 to 6.3
Auto white balance
Auto iso (usually around 500-1000)
Nice sunny day with no clouds.

Nice day out, no wind about 75 degrees.

A few shots taken with a D500 paired with a 80-400 but still I am not happy with the focus at 400mm, so I don't use it much. The lens is perfect on the D4. Go figure.
