10/5 - 2011 RIT Volleyball so far...

Just thought I'd show you some of my top shots from the 2011 RIT's volleyball season so far...there will be more to come later when I shoot some more games in the upcoming weeks.

In no particular order....

Ladies, if you see a picture of yourself, feel free to download and use it for your profile picture or whatever :-)

10/2 - Junior Hockey

For the first time in my photography career, I shot a hockey game that did not involve RIT at all. For my sports photography class, I was required to shoot two junior hockey games (in other words, high school hockey).

So my class and I headed on over to Monroe Community College where the games were being played. MCC has a nice Sports Complex on their campus, housing three different ice rinks. It's possible to have up to three different games being played at the same time.

I shot two different games today; Mayksmum Junior Hockey versus Frederick Freeze and Rochester Stars versus Capital District Selects Minor Jr.

It was a pretty interesting experience, shooting a non-RIT hockey game. It allowed me to focus on both teams instead of just one team, which gave me some more variety in my photos. I thought it was pretty fun.

10/1 - RIT Pre-Season Game

You know it's hockey season when RIT open their season with a nice little preseason warm-up game against some lowly Canadian team. The Tigers pounded the Brock Badgers 4-0, scoring three goals in a 4:08 span during the second period.
