p.1 #1 · A couple of shots from Canberra tournament
Canberra had its stop on the ALPG golf tour a week ago. Not a lot of media coverage and not always the highest world-ranked players, but a good chance to grab stock shots of golfers -- you never know when someone is going to need a clean shot of a rising/local pro golfer.
These are pretty much straight out of camera. A very small subset was cleaned, cropped and loaded to a spec stock agency in the US. All shot with a Canon 1D Mark III and a 500 f4.5 at a disturbingly high ISO for a daytime outdoor sport -- who said the Australian summer was sunny and warm? The watermark is hard-wired into out image-hosting system and is what it is.

Yup, just the follow through. There was zero chance that 'peak action' was going to get picked up, so the idea was just to get some nice clean photos. I sent up a few bunker and putting shots to a spec wire. Wider, atmospheric photos suffered greatly from the lack of a crowd.
