Hi All,

Took my boy to a pre season NRL match this weekend, he was lucky enough to get taken on to the field and watched some of the game with his hero, the Tigers Mascot.

Unfortunately the Tigers lost but we had a good night.

This shot was taken with a 50 1.4 lens at f4.5 (forgot to change the aperture down) @ 1600iso, lighting in the stadium is shocking, not many of the action shots came out a I only had a 300mm f5 lens.

Cheers,
W00DY

    Thanks.

    It is not the greatest photo (I can't seem to get a good image at 1600iso, there was a LOT of noise (see background)) but it meant a lot to my son so I thought I'd put it up here.

    Hopefully next time I will try and bring the ISO down and set the aperture better :D

    you can see the look of admiration/adoration in his eyes as he's looking at the tiger - cool.
