Was in the area with my camera gear so I'd thought I'd check out the polo tournament today. Awesome sport to watch, fun to photography, must be tons of fun to play.

First time shooting Polo, another photog gave me a tip about positioning: Polo players all shoot with their right hand so it's good be on the right side of the sidelines. Ahhh yess...

I quite like the angle and moment you've caught in #2 - shame you can't see any of the rider's face!

Big challenge trying to cover a game, these guys were all over the place.

Nice shots - isn't one always on the right side for one direction/team??
