AHL Hockey - Toronto at Rockford 01-20-14

Wearing our road red jersey for the game, which really popped against the white ice. I think we only get about 1-2 games per year with the reds, so I was really excited when they skated out. A few good action sequences in this game, too.

1.

looking at your angle, is there netting above the glass that you are shooting past? I got to shoot from the penalty box last night for an adult legaue game but it really limited my shots with the 70-200. Missed angles, etc and the rest of the rink its hard to shoot up on hight without tons of netting.

No netting, everything was shot from center ice between the upper and lower bowl. The netting here is only around the back of the goalie and about even with the crease on both sides.

right on. Im diging the angle as it allows to get more action. I just began shooting hockey so I am learning quite a bit each time. Looking through your past posts I am getting plenty of ideas and guidance.

great captures as always...

Excellent shots. What lens did you use?

Thanks for the compliemnts.

All of these used the 1Dx + 300mm 2.8 mk2 lens. Everything shot over the glass, 1/1000, f3.2 @ 2000 ISO.

Awesome Shots! I'm not sure if you're a pro? If not, you should be
