You'd recommend shooting on aperture priority then, yes? Interesting that.
Oh yes, my dinky little camera does have sports mode, but I found I moved on from that to one of the semi-auto settings a couple of years ago but I'm still very much experimenting in sport as I do in most elements of photography. I take around 3 - 400 photos per match, depending on the action. I think I manage to capture some reasonable action shots but I certainly don't click non-stop, I just follow the action as I would if I was just watching the game, but I'm not a professional, never professed to be, just a happy amateur - just think your comments were a little uncalled for, after all if you've seen them before why bother looking if you think they are poo? The club didn't seem to think so when they had them made into posters for the shop, and used them regularly in the programme.

Cracking photos. Thanks muchly.
Apart from the results for us Saints.. it was a really good afternoon.
Thanks to all the Rovers who went out of their way to show us where to be and took us to the Robin's Nest. Even got a bit of suntan!!

Thank you! Glad you had a good day, it makes a refreshing change not to have whinging away supporters, can't see, got wet, horrible fans, etc, etc. Nice to hear that you were made welcome - and a suntan to boot!!

Good stuff. My favourites being: the 6th one in with Fozzard looking like he's sh*t himself, the Mascot fight (which was quality ), Roby thinking he is Rufus without the outfit

I'm merely an amateur who enjoys taking photos, some people on here seem to enjoy looking at them, especially those that can't get to games, but maybe they're not the connoiseur of art that you obviously are.
I'm serious, go ahead, tell me where I'm going wrong?'"
Stop getting agited Trace....your photo`s are always excellent.
(Although the ones of Rovers scoring against Hull are a bit suss.)

| The abbot does have a point. He may have been a little bit too direct with his original comment but he is right. I don't want to sound cruel but a little criticism helps. By your own admission you take 2-300 photos per match. You then post a huge number after each game. Perhaps if you used a bit more self restraint and only published a few of the better ones they would have more impact. Don't listen to the people who tell you they are all great. That is obviously untrue. Even the pros don't get perfect results every shot. Personally I don't know how you manage to follow the game when you must be superglued to the viewfinder but if it suits you then fine.

Get over yourself, why would I think you cruel, it's your opinion nothing more! I see all of the game, just because I do it through a lens why is that a problem to you. I upload what I consider to be the better ones, I've never said any of them are great, although i do sometimes feel very proud of certain ones. I shoot in bursts of about four frames per second, as I have 4800 seconds available during every match, yet only take a max of about 400, there is plenty of time when the camera isn't 'superglued' to my face - strange there cos that remark has been made by one other person on here who has a problem with me.... I wonder....
Obviously if I were better at this I wouldn't be plodding through life as a teaching assistant. It's a hobby for goodness sake, can you not understand that? If some people get enjoyment from them then that's fine, if others want to spend time analysing and finding fault, so be it, I won't lose any sleep I don't ask anyone to look at them, I put them on here for those who want to, there's always the HDM photos if you want a more polished, professional version
