With training camps opening all over this week I was wondering who is going to be visiting. I am hoping to get out to the Panther's camp in Spartanburg and this weekend would be perfect weather wise as it is supposed to be fairly cool considering the time of year but I have a lot to do so it will likely have to wait a week or two.

So who's going?

The Bill's open camp at St. John Fisher College Wednesday. The college is located in Pittsford, New York ( a few minutes drive/bike from Rochester, New York). I plan on catching a session or two.

Lucky dog. I am about 30 minutes away from Bank of America Stadium where the Panthers play but camp is about a 2 hour drive.

I'll be hitting the Bills camp in Pittsford on Monday morning. Hoping to get some decent shots if I can get close enough.

Cool. Enjoy. A good friend of mine is a Bills fan, but I don't hold that against him. :lol: ;)

Palladium,

Those are some incredible shots! I am heading to the Pats training camp this Friday and hopefully I can be able to get some decents shots if I can get close enough to the field. Were you shooting manually or aperture priority?

I made it to the Saints camp last year and took photos from the stands:

This year it looks like I'll get a media pass through Millsaps College, the Jackson, MS school that is hosting the Saints training camp. I'm looking forward to the closer access and not having to shoot looking into the sun during some of the afternoon practices.

I'm hoping to have a break in my baseball and coaching schedule to go up to Bills camp for a day or two just to practice some football shooting for the season...if I can get some passes.

I'll be going to the Bears training camp for 7 or 8 days starting Friday. Hopefully I can get some good shots (don't have any type of media access).

I'll probably hit the Giants camp. They did a scrimmage day with the Jets a few years ago that led to some great shots... but I don't think they are going to do that again.

Thanks - I was in the public areas and behind the fence for my 2006 NY Jet photos

I used a 30D and a 300mm f4 with and without a Canon 1.4 tele converter
