Nothing special this time, just thought to share few images from the last couple of days. And instead of boring you with dozen images of one game, I thought to give you three shots of three different sports..
(and you know you can always go and see more of the same games at my website if you REALLY want to
)
Lets start with basketball, quite a poor arena to shoot at. They played at a place that reminded me of a old school gym. But here is an OK shot from the game.
Next, Floorball - a game that might not be that much played in the UK. But in Finland it is 'the game' at the moment as we just won the World Championships in December (I was lucky enough to be there to photograph it and capture the winning goal of the Final).
This image is one to keep.. the ball isn't that hard, but trust me, when it hits you in the wrong place. It does hurt like hell... so that's where the ball ended up flying after it left the frame.
And how could I post a thread without Ice Hockey , so here the mandatory shot of the game. Wasn't not happy shooting at this arena, as I like to shoot from the corners at the rink level. There are neon adverts all around the rink.. so they give a reflection that really ruins the shots. But, this one came out OK...
So, there few shots from me once again... also noticing my 70-200 is getting a little tired at the moment. Doesn't focus quite as fast as it used to. Might be a time for it to visit the Canon people for a 'rest'.

) I think many FInnish sports seem to have shirts that are filled with dozens of tiny adverts...not very nice for photos, but the teams need to make money.
