Day 115 - Running In...!

Not bad viewed large, on black if you have time :)

I managed to take this during the game even thought I was actually operating my tv camera at the same time. I was on a big close up of the Umpire (the guy in the black trousers :) so I wasn't moving the camera but it was still a little bit of an odd time to be taking photos. This is a crop on the original shot but I just wanted to try and capture a moment of the game. And I managed to hit the shutter just in time as the bowler is about to release! Bit of a lucky shot :)

Since when have they worn numbers? I painted (badly) exactly this scene for an art exam once...

Great capture. You were in a privileged location.
I went to a game recently, but my shot is from another perspective: http://365project.org/anazad511/365/2013-04-09

I love the way the bowler is caught mid-bowl, up in the air like that. Great action shot. You sure had prime view!

[Michael Elliott]

cool shot!

Great action photo! I have a few cricket photos in my project, my son plays for Loughborough University and we often watch him!

[Linda]

I don't know the first thing about cricket, but I really like the composition. Great timing with that ball!

[Humphrey Hippo]

Perfect timing. You have a great PoV for there.

[Karin Hirsch]

Well done, great capture

@judithg I'm not sure of when they started wearing numbers but it helps pick them out for close ups :)

Watched some of the coverage on Sky - bet you're hoping for warmer games! Nice shot!

[Steve Angell]

@malc Yes indeed I am. Leicester, Nottingham and Derby coming up so hoping the Midlands proves a little warmer. Thanks for watching...nice to know the viewers are out there :)
