I was out for the practice round today at Angus Glen. Cloudy and warm with a bit of wind. I was using the 70-200 f/2.8.

I was expecting him to take more practice swings and hadn't got my shot lined up when he hit the ball.

I think this was the swing that Vijay was startled by a shutter from the other side of the fairway and lost his focus. He asked the gentleman if he "got that one?" to which was replied "Thanks Vijay!"

Sweet. I was hoping to get up there but too busy.
I don't know if it's just me but they seem a tad soft.
Thanks for sharing. Hope you enjoyed it.

Could the softness be the cropping I did on some of the shots?

Could be. I see it mostly in the faces like in #2 and #3. I wouldn't worry about it too much the shots are very good.

Thanks!

This is my first time shooting at any kind of sporting event. Luckily I ran into another amateur photographer who was kind enough to let me tag along and get some pointers. Hopefully I can put these into practice in the future.
