Some really good Strong Emotion shots there. I knew that sports would be the place to find them.

I probably should have gotten a pass to the Super Bowl!

Tennis shots are hard to shoot, I think. As a spectator anyway. Those are good!

ginger (love that last one you put up!!!! Did you get it after the ball hit her in the face, lol. Yes, I know that it just looks that way.)

System

On the two days I was there the heat was intense. I was drinking two bottles of water every hour or so and all I was doing was sitting, watching and shooting. My shirt became saturated and I had to cover the camera with a towel as it was too hot to hold. Imagine what the poor players were going through!

Thanks for your comments.
