Tournament paintball in Grandview WA

[Jimmyhickey]

Here are some of my favorite photos from last weekend in Grandview Washingon at the Mossback Paintball Challenge.
All photos where shot with either a Canon 1D MK II, a Canon 1D and a 70-20 2.8 L and 300 F 4 L
Using the rental 300 F4 inspired me to be a high roller and purchase a 300 2.8 non IS: )

cool shots

Lots of picture, yet not enough. Number 9, love hows he is doing the old jump and shoot over the barrel. Would be nice to see a little more on the bottom of the picture to shows he is jumping.

4,5 and 6, like those shots. Love how you can see the balls that are in the air, shows what he is dodging.

7 i am hoping he really bunkered him and didn't paint his noodle.

The focus and color all look great to me. the net in BG of #8 makes it look cool. I love that no photoshop needed for that effect. Good job, hope there are more in your flickr, thats where i am headed.

Every time I happen on your pictures it really seems like your growing in skill by leaps and bounds. I remember when you posted some of your very first shots on ST:P, and to see this quality of work coming from you now is stunning.

great job dude

I agree with BryanK.

First of all, nice pics. I clicked on this solely due to your title; I was raised in Grandview until I was 10 and we moved to Spokane. Most people even in Washington wouldn't know where it is, so it really caught my eye to see it mentioned in your title. Memory lane.....

Thanks everyone:)


As far as Grandview itself, It's pretty small, I've know about it mainly because there are paintball tournaments out there a few times a year. I'm from Southwestern WA, so I don't get out east that often
