The Shadow!

Well captured action shot.  We don't follow hockey but I assume it's getting cold enough to play now.... Mike

I'm not really a hockey fan either. This was only the second game I've attended in the past 10 years.  Just enjoy photographing the action.  Baseball, on the other hand.........................! (who wouldn't be a fan these days?)  Great series so far, Jays vs Royals, after last night, all tied up now at 2 games apiece.  Really great teams. (no matter who wins the World Series)  These hockey players are in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) which is one of the leagues where the Pro (NHL) players are chosen from.  Below is the colour version.  Your choice!  Best Len.

I too am not a diehard hockey fan but you've stopped the action well Len. That's my biggest complaint with the game, it's actually to fast for tv, though they've made improvements with these new smart led sets. I'm told live is the way to go with hockey. Great shot. 

BR, Holger

What was I thinking?  World series NOT a tie at this moment.  Wishful thinking on my part I guess. :-)  Stay tuned!  Best, Len.

We have enjoyed both hockey and baseball on our 39" LED TV but watching the games live is indeed the way to go if you have modestly deep pockets. (cost for the grand-kids popcorn is almost the price of the tickets).  :-)  You even get replays on the Jumbotron.  Anticipating where the action will be at it's peak is still a challenge for me.  Best, Len.

Excellent work! Very well cropped with that old vintage feel, good expressions.

By 'the vintage' feel I suspect you mean the B&W presentation.  That was my goal. (pardon pun)  I've included the colour version in my answer to Mike, above.  Always good to hear from you.  Best, Len.

Nice shot, crisp blacks. Colts vs. Rangers, two great young players.

The last time I was at a Pro hockey game (Toronto vs Montreal) was in 1969.  Great experience but I don't remember being any more thrilled than at these OHL games.  Well, it IS where some of the Pro teams draw their talent. Cleaner game too.  Less fighting.  That's LESS, not NONE. :-)  Best, Len.

Sorry, I left the link out.  Len.

Nicely cropped, using the square. I may have chosen color, though. Good work

Yah, this is perhaps one time I should have posted the colour version.  See my reply to Mike, above, for a link to the colour version.  Something for everyone!  :-)  Many thanks for your visit & opinion.  Best, Len.
