From today's "friendly". I've shed my long glass and probably will shoot much less rugby.

Thanks for looking,

Bob

Say it isn't so, Robert! Well that just means that you'll have to get closer to the action!

Perfectly timed shot. The expressions on the player's faces are intense.
I can still remember the pain of separation when I sold my 300/2.8 and 500/4.0 and went all in with a rangefinder system. It definitely impacts the kind of shooting you do.
Cheers,
Brent

Some big bodies "crashing" around there Bob! Don't get too close!
Not a sport for the weak of heart!
Well done!

Thanks Douglas,

I about got trampled on this one; kneeling along sideline, the muffed pass dropped two feet from me. Not often I kneel, takes too long to get back up

Thanks Brent,

Previously I used monopod so in this case I had to get as close as possible - the 'Sir' is very generous in what they allow me to do.

Yeah, long glass = weight which has become a disincentive. The heat index was +109°F, kicked my butt, and I left after 1st quarter - contest was well out of hand at that point anyway.

Best,

Bob
