She's a representative from KK competing for the first time in the ISO category. Previously she competed in the Opie or Optimist class of boats, which were the tiny little one man boats. Even at her first competition, she bagged a respectable third place!

This post is titled AM Gunners vs. Sekolah Sukan Charity Match by author SoulJah. 0004_NIKON D300_DSC_3011
His Royal Highness Prince Abdul Mateen takes a practice shot before the start of the game.

In what can be considered a spirited match, AM Gunners, led by His Royal Highness Prince Abdul Mateen fought to the last minute, going down to a 2-4 score against Sekolah Sukan. A very entertaining match, with a very entertaining crowd cheering on both teams, meant a very, very entertaining shooting experience despite the light downpour. Most of us braved the rain with plastic bags over our gear to get a good shot of the action. The weather cleared up for the second half, which saw a flurry of goals.

This post is titled Final Dash by author SoulJah. 0101_NIKON D300_DSC_1047

Taken during the DST Women's Sports Day event at the Balapan last Sunday, which saw the Ministry of Finance team bagging second place overall. Good job team!

Good opportunity in getting to grips with my new TeleConverter. A stress test revealed it might not be able to keep up with fast sports, and I really need to do an AF Fine Tune to get the sharpest image possible. But I'll learn to work around the shortcomings and make it fit into my style of shooting.

This post is titled Saffron vs. Ranoadidas by author SoulJah. 007_DSC_0049_processed

Couldn't get lots of good pictures as I forgot to bring my Wireless Triggers for my flash, so all I could do was use CLS, which meant line of sight, which meant I can't fiddle my camera around to get good angles as this would definitely block the CLS signals. But in any case, I had to make do with what I've got, which meant practice some more in case my wireless trigger do fail, which I half heartedly expect them to during a shoot.

This post is titled BIBD Invitational Netball Tournament by author SoulJah.

After having a rough day the day before, it's good to know that a brief stint of photography outing can restore the cheer in me. Wasn't really looking forward to it considering, but it turned out great for me, and I get to practice before an actual event that's coming up, and I get to practice some Strobist techniques.

While I can't replicate some of the techniques I've read up on Strobist, as there was no overhang behind the net, and sticking it clost to mid court was impossible as well due to the heavy traffic of people and the refs officiating the game. There was only one or two metres clearance from the sideline to the walls, so space was limited. Improvise? There's a ledge right near the net area to one side which extends to a doorway which was not used, and as it was right in the corner, I know I won't block the view of the spectators. You can see it in my second shot. I aimed it at around the middle of the half court on a tripod, so the light would be evenly spread from the net at its nearest end, and will at least tickle the light above ambient on the other end.

The other strobe was on the light stand as far away from the action as possible right at the corner. This pointed at the same area as well. Was triggering with my G.I. remotes, but intermittently, the flashes will not fire. This could be time to replace the batteries in the receivers, and also I would need to mod the receivers so it can fire at a higher percentage when I'm at the other end of the court.

Free movement around the court, and armed with f/2.8s, ISO800, I got quite good results. Grainy as heck, but it looks oh so crisp and detailed. I might go and do some aggressive NR with these pics in the future. Here's a selection of pictures in portrait form. Some more pics can be found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/stupidlogic/sets/72157600598016375/detail/.

This post is titled Go-Kart Race at Jerudong Park on 6th May, 2007 by author SoulJah. After the morning TT session at Jing Chew with... wait for it... Bruneian, AnakBrunei and missus, Zadm, Ber (who left as I was arriving), Airbiscuit, Jim747, hjzul, RezaFaizal and missus, Nikonian, and the ever knowing Rano, (phew, that's a long list)... me, Airbiscuit and Jim747 decided to go ahead with Rano's suggestion of a Go-Kart/Cub Bike/Mini Bike race at Jerudong Park's Go Kart track. It was awesome grounds to practice panning shots. Hey, what's more fun to pan with than a relatively slow moving auto race? Got great images out of the whole deal. What a way to spend my 24th birthday.
