sports photographers :clap::clap:

I went along to watch my nephew play in his last football match of the season today, I don't think i've ever had to take photos in such difficult conditions :eek:

He plays for a local under under 15's side, and today they used Chester City's ground.

Big pitch and small lads make for distant images :shake: and then to make things worse the heavens opened up.

taking photos at distance in the rain has the nasty effect of making things look soft.

I also found that 200mm + a 1.4x convertor isn't big enough.......i need a BIG lens now :thumbs:

Great shot!
I know what you mean though!
My daughter played at Paulton rovers ground on Thursday, my 200 was no way near any good.

I'm trying to convince the wife about a f2.8L 200:shake:
