Looking through tonights fball photos, and it seems that Marc Atkins off this site is shooting the chelsea V Villa game. I could be wrong though.

You are spot on with that.

Marc - for when you do get to this thread - congrats for having a thread named after you! Sportsbeat pics weren't bad either!!

Lucky bugger getting to work under decent lights!!

I think you will find Joe Toth (off here as well) shooting the England vs Argentina rugby match on Sat at Twickenham. Now that I am REALLY jealous of!!

Yeah lucky bugger. I can certanly see his work improving aswell, as i have followed his first football posts until now and i can plainly see the difference.

I'm not so jelous of Joe Toth photographing the England V Argentina match, as i lives accross the border. We (Wales) have pacific islands on Saturday, so not the most exciting match ever, but bring on NZ on the 25th, it should be an exciting match, i hope Wales win, but NZ should win due to their awesomeness (is that a word)

Saw Marc at Watford vs Newcastle last night... he's certainly getting round a bit. Good on him.

Erm....you are!!

I am sure you have broken some "gentleman's agreement" that we will only shoot night games in unacceptably low, difficult to work in light! None of this premiership lighting!!

First Rich Claypole, now you....what is the world coming to eh?!

Seriously though, some nice pics on the SBI website. And good work with the events you're getting too!

Ok, the lights aren't as good there - so we'll let you off this once!!!

Love the photos - especially the penalty save.....although that ball looks as if heading somewhere painful!!

Apologies for asking this, but am at work and can't see the exif info - but what did you shoot those on?

Marc, I saw you and had no idea it was you!!!

I don't have the Rugby game on Saturday as we didnt get a pass from the RFU after we were told we did. But good things come out of that as I get to see the All Blacks take on the Leeks in a few weeks.

Have you guys seen what the NLP and LP have done?

Joe

well done Marc its great to see you guys doing well your work certainly deserves it quality images.gives us all something to aspire to.

Steve

Marc,

I was lmost the very last guy in the corner, had the old guy, me, a guy with long hair and then Phil Cole of Getty. I have Arsenal on Sunday are you there?

I was mentioning the LP and NLP because I know a lot of us have shot for them in the past and I saw that they have combined into one paper. I thought it was funny that I stopped getting phone calls from Kelly and I am thinking it has to do with the fact that something has changed internally.

Joe

boy, I sure miss shooting premiership football!
