Great game, but as with most Wisconsin teams the Bucks blew a large 4th quarter lead but unlike some other teams they actually pulled this one out. Managed to get almost every player sig as well.

Compared to last years team they are defintely more into defense, but Skiles would bench them if they were not. Jefferson is pretty quick, got good hands but gets terrible looks and shoots anyway. I don't know about Bogut, during warm ups a ball rolled over to me and I picked it up to hand over to him and he flinched like I was going to drop him with it :rolf

A note to remember; around Christmas the cheerleaders wear one very nice outfit :thumbsup

A Canon 1DsMKII. During the first half I used a 24-70 f/2.8 lens and the second half I used a 24-105 f/4 IS.

Took my 20D along for a friend to use and it did awfully well. This was with the 24-105 on it. Goes to show that alot of your image quality comes from the glass you use, that 20D is 6 years old already.

Right on! Great shots. Did you let that old guy with the old xmas sweater and hat on the ground to your left use your old Pentax film camera with yellowing flash?

:D

I always forget to ask who that guy is but he is at EVERY home game shooting. Always the same camera/flash and always with a belt harnessed battery pack. He has duct tape holding his boots together, just generally doesn't look like he should be on the floor but there he is all the time.

The D300 is a great camera for shooting sports. When I did the McDonals All American games in the spring there were a couple of them out there. A nice 1DMKIIn will save you some cash and get you 8.5 fps though.

They are a friend's season courtside tickets. When I have got my hands on them in the past I took one of my kids. On this occasion he wanted to learn more about shooting a DSLR so it was just him and I.

Those tickets have a face value of around $400 each :wooo

If they ever come up again and none of my kids can go I might have a lottery on here :rolf

I am guilty of admiring more than shooting that night. A majority of those dancers are restaurant quality.
