manged to get a couple of ok shots from yeterday golf game.
I founded out the hard way but it pays to know how each player shoots. Plus bring minial equipment cos theres alot of walking the course with gear.I would like to hear you comments be harsh and brutal if you like.

Went to have a look at your pics but a message came up saying you'd exceeded your allocated data transfer...

Golf is a hard subject to make interesting but you are certainly pressing the button at the right time. You had the light working against you and fill flash is probably a no-no for the golfers. If I have to take golfing pics I pray for a cloudy day!

If it's a social game then fill-flash is probably OK.

thanks, most of the good players had their "good side" shadowed by the sun. to be honest i think the strong winds, harsh sunlight and the 767s landing in the landing strip across the rd were more of a bother than my fill-flash.

I like the silhouette. As you said, the harsh light didn't help. You made the best of the conditions by the looks of it.

There's some really good shots in there. I especially like the sillouhette and the guy checking his upcoming putt. Really cool. Well done. :)

G'day,
Really like the ones where the ball's in frame, they're good capture's of the game... Like the sillouhette too, was that due to backlight or was it sillouhette'd(?) in PP?... Good stuff...

Cheers,
Mudder
