Digital Sports Photographer Wannabe, That’s Me

I caught the photography bug again in 2004, after a nearly twenty year hiatus. I was faced with a rite of parenthood passage last spring, when our son left the town soccer club to play for a premier club. After a couple of years of amateur coaching, I happily hung up the clipboard, picked up a digital SLR camera, and left the training to the pros.

I figured that if I took the courses, got the certificates, and pretended to be a soccer coach, I could just as easily wield a big-lensed SLR, take some photography classes, and pretend to be a sports photographer.

Alas, I still haven’t had the opportunity to take those photography classes … I’m just humming a few bars and faking it …

In a short time, I’ve come to learn that sports photography is one tough racket. (ouch)
