lead photo: kickball pitch
The Chapel Hill News printed three of my photo today with the story, Do the math on UNC’s inttamural kickball tournament on Saturday. From the caption on the lead photo:
Mean Machine’s Anderson Shore, a UNC freshman, pitches during a playoff win at UNC’s intramural kickball tournament Saturday on Hooker Fields. Kickball, a recreational throwback to the playground game you played when you were a schoolkid, has grown into an annual event on the Carolina campus calendar.
kick ball
I posted Kickball Outtakes a few days ago with some more photos from the day. The post alse talks a bit about the challenges I faced and the technical details.
team building
I looked for the safe shots first. So I took the first two shots of pitching and kicking pretty early. The team building exercise made for a fun ‘unexpected’ shot between the two rounds of play I stayed for.
through the hole
These las ttow were submitted to the paper, but not run. I like the first one a lot, but was leaving as I shot it. I did not stay to get caption info. That and having the main subject’s back to the camera probably shot this one down. The last shot was another safe, though quite uninteresting, shot. I looked for an emotional crossing-home-plate moment, but one never came. The players had been there for hours and the afternoon had gotten quite warm. The players were probably saving up the last bit of enerty for the finals.
