(sorry, title edited shamelessly for additional views, but I'll do that just once...thanks for understanding)

Sure, during the regular season, the Packer's biggest enemy might be da Bears or duh Vikings, but during training camp is this $#^@&*% fence!



Well, at least, it sure as heck got in my way trying to photograph training camp. Of course, the harsh backlighting and having to use a teleconverter didn't help, but that's beside the point. Big Grin

If you're interested in seeing my photos from the July 29th AM practice, they're on my website (finally):

Brian's Photography

I don't want to take up space here by posting a large number of them, but let me just show two more...the first is one of my favorites, which happened seredipitously. Even though you can see the blur of the fence obscuring the bottom portion of the photo, if you look closely in the players eye shield you can actually see a reflection of us railbirds on the stands!



And then lastly, if you are at all interested in who the last three players were on the field, working hard long after practice was over, they're in this shot here.



Even though Driver was not able to actively participate in practice (I forget the reason), he was there the whole time encouraging others and then stayed after to teach his moves. Wow.

GO PACK GO!!!

Umm... Umm... Ummm... Can you use that in a sentence. No, wait, you did... Can you use it in a sentence I can understand? Confused

Someone send this link to the Packers, their photographer needs to be replaced!

You might want to change the topic title to PICTURES FROM TRAINING CAMP, it's falling down faster than it should. Smiler

Thanks for showing me how my pictures SHOULD look. paperbag Big Grin

I think that's an old school sniglet combining:

serendipitous and surreptitous.


As in stealthily scoring good picks by accident.


Maybe not...

Good pics though.
LOL, sorry to disappoint you LoBabe. Tooner explained it though...Favre wasn't there due to the death in the family. I actually missed the first 10min or so of the practice because I was waiting for him to walk across the street from the stadium after all the other players had come through already. Fortunately I didn't wait too long before asking someone.

Thanks for the compliments everyone, I'm glad you're enjoying the photos.

Wish I could get closer to the action though......anybody got any connections to get me on the sidelines?
