Hockey.....in B&W

[Rick Denham]

OK, we see images in black and white in the papers all the time, but rarely do people process them this way. Anyways I had a few extra minutes to fool around the other day so I decided to do some black and white. I know they are hot (it's my strobes & arena) and are very contrasty but that's the way I like my B&W. Anyways, enjoy and feel free to C&C.

This last one kills me, I was in the trainers room right after one of
our players got caught with a high stick. He ended up with a bloody nose,
broken chicklet & a hole through his lower lip.....ouch

These are some of the coolest hockey shots that I have seen on here yet. Very original and totally different from what we are used to seeing. Great stuff.
