Didn't take too many yesterday -
not wanting to "do a smurf" and drown my camera. And also not ideal
having to start the game at the max ISO, 3200. Having said that, the
shutter speeds were almost acceptable, and the Gardens' lights are at
least a stop better than Bristol.
Dickson & Dowson take out Tuilagi
Great tackle

Evening everybody,
I think that was the wettest I have ever been - why didn't I make that trip to Blacks to waterproof my jacket before yesterday? I had four layers on and the damp got through all of them. Yesterday I was shooting with the short lenses as I needed all the light in the camera I could get. I have always wanted to take the steaming pack shot until this season I have never had the chance - Munster was my first opportunity and yesterday my second. Great fun!!
I think Phil Dowson is the best number 8 in the country and one of the nicest chaps you could ever meet. Unusually, I was asked to take photos of the mascots. It's a big moment for the children concerned and it's normally over in seconds - Phil took the time to wish the children well for the match. Seconds later he was clattering into Tigs giving his all. Top man
.
I think we out thought and fought Tigs yesterday - the pack was immense and the back line disciplined in the appalling conditions. The bravery award has to go to Dickson - he put his body at risk on so many occasions.
Anyway here are my favourites, shot at f2.8 and ISO6400:
Rest of the photos can be found 'ere...
Next week it's the battle of the Stades for me and DrT - see you for the semi-final
