Boxing is pretty popular in our small city. It always has. I was at this
event last night for our city daily, The Edmonton Journal, and sent the
first photo along with four others for the night.

But when I was looking through all my missed and blurry shots, I got to say
that the graphic designer in me was really drawn to some of the out of focus
shots. They seem kind of cinematic and story-telling.

The Technical Stuff: Shot at ISO2000 at 1/800sec, f2.8, using a Nikon D700
and 70-200mm lens. For boxing I'll take a chance and focus on one person
that I think will be the punching bag. And then I shoot, shoot, shoot. And
no, I can't seem to anticipate the shot. I basically cross my fingers. I
find that keeping both eyes open helps a lot. Except when blood or sweat
starts flying at me. Yuck.
