"Colorado shortstop Troy Tulowitzki breaks his bat in route to a single in the first inning Sunday afternoon, April 6, 2008 against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Coors Field in Denver, Colo. The Rockies held the Diamondbacks scoreless through eight innings but home runs in the ninth and tenth innings gave Arizona the win and series sweep."
Today, after the pre-game NLCS ring ceremony, Trevor gave me free reign to shoot wherever I pleased. There were maybe three other photographers there, compared to twenty or so Friday for opening day, which meant that I was pretty unrestricted to where I got to shoot from. The best part about that is getting several different angles of the same thing. Consequently the more angles I can get of the same player the happier Rich Clarkson and Associates will be. I really tried hard today and I think that showed in my images. Things definately become a lot easier and routine on day three compared to Friday.
I didn't stay in the same spot for more than three innings or so and even ventured up the the upper deck behind home plate with a 400 and a TC to shoot the bread and butter "tight" shots with "clean" backgrounds. If there is anything that I've learned in the last year it's to shoot tight and crop tighter.
I could babble on for three more pages about how much fun I had and my amazing experience but that would just get redundant. Instead check out some of my images:
Big thanks to Trevor and Ryan for trusting that I could get the job done and allowing me to do so!!!
