Season Ending

September 18, 2010 by · Leave a Comment 

I admit, I checked out on the Red Sox season a few weeks ago. I just couldn’t take watching the team when Pedoria and Youkilis were already out for the year. It’s kind of ridiculous that the Red Sox could end up with the 3rd best record in baseball (more likely 3rd best in the A.L.) and not even make the playoffs.

On the other hand, I’ve really been into football season in a way that I haven’t been in quite a while. The Patriots looked good in their first game and Clemson has looked decent in games against a cupcake schedule. As I’m posting this, Clemson is just taking the kickoff in the game against Auburn (their first real test of the year). Come on guys. Let’s see some orange in the end zone.

Back!

Years of a playing baseball ingrained in me that whenever a pitcher turns to throw to first, everyone on the team should yell “Back!”. Only every often do I end up doing that at a real baseball game.

Shooting sports is one of those times I really feel the limitations of shooting with a little Nikon P6000. It means that if I want to capture a moment, I have to deal with the picture being less than perfect technically, even after I do some touch-up work. I think it’s [Rick Sammon[(http://www.ricksammon) who really pushes the idea of “do you want to get a blurry picture or a picture with noise”. In my case, I decided I’d deal with the noise and try for a little less blur.
