Munster v Connacht
-
With the light varying and dying you just have to keep an eye on the exposure and ISO settings ;)
great shots as usual Ken.
Here are some of my feeble efforts from the same match. I upped the ISO for this match, 640, and 800. f2.8 lens 2nd half, but ~f4 in the first as I was using a teleconverter.
These are all post-cropping and some minor editing of levels.
Almost similar in choice of shots :lol: Were you were sitting to my left in the second half? Then followed me into the media room when they tried to stop us going in

The choice of pictures was deliberate.. I wanted to show the difference in the quality of shots, particularly when I spotted your shot of dougie.
I was one of the 2 girls sitting together, the other lass was on her first outing pitchside so latched onto me as a friendly face. I think Pat sorta scared her before the game.
I was only in the media room briefly to dump the vest and hope Glyn would show up.
You’d think those stewards would kow me by now :roll: yet every time Glyn has to come escort me to take the MOTM photo.
I do my photography for the supporters club.Great shots Ken and LL
Hope to be in Nenagh tomorrow night for more fun.
Here are a few of mine from Saturday – I haven’t had the chance to load them properly yet and the automatic compression on the site they are on probably doesn’t do them justice, but lighting was tricky on Saturday and it didn’t help that my 100 – 300 lens just gave up the ghost on the night so I was working with a 170 – 500 and a 28 – 55.
Unfortunately I’m working tomorrow evening so I can’t make it to the Russia game. Should be interesting to see how they get on.
Lovely shots as usual Ken – once you keep the Munster ones coming, I’m a happy man!

Going to try and get to that match, have meetings at work up to 6pm, but will scoot cross-country from shannon to birdhill and hopefully get to the game on time.
Have a certain photo I need to get further signatures on, and few of the guys in the munster team tomorrow night are likely to be on their final outing for munster, so it’s a last chance to get those signatures.
I shall of course endeavour to get some pictures, but I ain’t hopeful. If the lights at St Marys in Dublin are “AIL standard” then I’m in for a dim and dark night, and absolutely no point in using the Teleconverter to extend the lens.I am making sure that I have meetings in Athlone tomorrow that will finish at the appropriate time. By some strange coincidence Nenagh is on the road home.
You should be OK with the light for the start of the game assuming the weather is Ok so get all your shots in early. The old lights there certainly weren’t much use for photography, that said I did manage some usable ones there a year or two back but only of static play.
