Today was the first time shooting volleyball for me this year. Also I never used strobes for volleyball before, but so far so good. Well my timing wasn't perfect but I noticed by the end of the game I was getting better photographs. Mount Royal Cougars played against Red Deer College Kings and Queens on Kenyon Court. MRC girls won 3-0 and MRC men lost 1-3.

Mount Royal Cougars girls defeat NAIT OOKS 5-3.

Couple of shots from the Mount Royal Cougars against Red Deer College soccer games.

Today I photographed a couple of the Mount Royal Cougars soccer games again. It was a nice hot day (unlike other day when I had to photograph soccer in the cold rain). Cougars won both games, men won 9-0, so it was very fun to watch.

Tonight I was photographing men's and women's soccer games. I spent 4 hours in the rain. It was very cold and very windy, but my camera survived and I ended up with some nice shots. Mount Royal Cougars played SAIT Trojans. Men's team lost their first ever regular season game at the Stadium Field 3-2. Women remain undefeated after winning 1-0. Although I was very cold and wet, I really enjoyed the game!

Exhibition game between Calgary Villains and MRC Cougars.

I lost all my money betting on horses today. Only having $7, it wasn't bad, but I can see how this can be addictive. It was my first time seeing Harness horse races, I must say that I liked Thoroughbred races better. I think in Harness races there isn't as much action going on and its not as fast.

Today I was covering my first baseball game. I don't really know much about baseball so I was learning as the game went on. At the end I was pretty happy with the photographs that I took, and specially for the first time out :) Calgary Vipers played against Winnipeg Goldeyes, Calgary lost 9-2.

Some action shots that I photographed today at lunch time. The Calgary Dinosaurs were playing against the Calgary Villains at Broadview Park.
