Photo of the Day – 19 March 2017: Going For The Ball

My camera club was invited to photograph a hockey match which was the semi-final of a regional competition in which a local team competing.  It proved to be a good opportunity to get some action shots.  Unfortunately, the home side lost, so it is unlikley that I will shoot the final.

This post is part of my occasional “Photo of the Day” series when I publish any shots which I think might be of interest and tell the story behind them.  They might not necessarily be portfolio standard images, nor the final version, but still be of sufficient interest for inclusion in my blog.  If I do not show a shot on any given day, it does not mean that I did not take any photographs, just that I did not get anything worthwhile.  For me, that is part of the fun of photography, not knowing what I will find on a shoot when nothing is planned.
