Volleyball at Middlebury's Japanese Language School

Shima · August 12, 2005

So we had a really bad record and kept losing, but at least I made us look pretty cool a few times, lol. Actually this is one of the games we couldn't lose since we played against our teachers...

Unfortunately the ball didn't make it into this shot, but if you look in his shadow, you'll see the ball

These are just pictures from the most recent game we had, with the Sensei's against the students... I'll post some pictures of our school against other language schools later in the week

Comments are welcome and encouraged, I only started shooting volleyball this summer because people asked me to, and after the first game I started to enjoy it

I think you did well. Nice action. Ball and faces. It's all good.

Hey Shima,
So you're back from Japan only mode?
I hope it went well for you

With your pictures, I would like to see you use a wider appature to blur the backgrounds a little bit.

Year our pledge ended last night

I'm home as of a few hours ago today ^_^

I'll keep that in mind next time I shoot volleyball, I'm not exactly sure when that will be, but whenever it is I'll try it

I was mainly shooting in program mode when I took those, I hadn't shot volleyball before this summer, so thanks for the input, always looking for ways to improve ^_^V
上手になりたいです
