Shooting the sealth Wrestling tourament

Saturday was the first time i shot wrestling with my new
70 to 200 2.8 vr
it was a great learning experiences. and it was one of the first time i didnt use any of my lights to shoot the pictures.

next time if they let me. i will do the strobist route. but with my alienbees instead

when i was shoting i notice a few thing
wrestling is a hard sport to shoot.
not only was the light bad. but everything moves so fast that you must be in the right place to capture that moment.
and there is no way to watch the match you have to just shoot to get that picture you want!.

i didn't get to move around the mat. i was forces to stay in one place only.

i found out that if i was to shoot a tourament i am going to need a monopod
that 70 to 200 2.8 is built like a tank. after ten hours of shooting it takes a toll on you.


some of my favorite pictures will be up soon.
stay tune in
