Wimbledon (6 pictures)

Well a sports photographer I'm not Sad but hey I've had a go.
Here's a few shots taken at Wimbledon on Monday.

Any comments and advice much appreciated.





And the great man himself

adam

very nice! like the first one of Henman serving..

nice shots btw

Thanks Dave I have to say I was worried but, after they searched my bag we had no problems at all.

We had great tickets, Centre court, 4 rows back just over from the centre line (directly opposite the players). The funny part is when people like Federer go to hit the ball, the amount of cameras you hear click is amazing and must be off putting.

Got taking to some of the paps at the front, one even allowed me to try his 500mm lens (what a beast but what a price Sad )

Great action shots Mike, and it must have been good to see Henman win a game as he always seems to blow out at Wimbledon.

Thanks Keith, yes it did make a change but have to admit what we saw of him he did play well for a Brit!!!!!.

A question for you, how many people use the "Focus Lock" feature? and do you find it helps when shotting faster moving subjects or not, have you any tips you would recommend?

Heres another of the great man in action:

While viewing around the stands spotted the guy (the one with the baseball cap)

Think he was a supporter in the Federer camp.
