This is a sport I wish I could shoot more of. I'll admit I don't have a whole lot of experience with it. I'm still learning the right positioning. We had our one and only home meet this weekend. I still couldn't dedicate a whole lot of time to it with baseball, softball, and tennis going on at the same time. Regardless, here are my favorites.

1. Discus remote (which unfortunately failed soon after the first flight started... pocketwizard had very poor range... possibly signal interference)

I like the remote discus and javelin photos (like the others, too). I would have set up a remote but it was supposed to rain (but never did). This is only the second track meet I shot and one thing I learned that is discus throwers are always looking away at their release. ;)

Out of the blocks on the 400 meter run. I like the look of determination on the face.

Some really great shots in this thread. The runners are easy, but this brings to mind how important the field events
are in coverage and what different possibilities/angles there are in getting these shots.

Awesome thread and great pics!

Here are some from an indoor meet. My first time out with my New Sigma 70-200 2.8 APO OS on the 70D

I never realized how much these actually bend until I shot this meet!
