10-01-11 Oklahoma City Regatta Festival 2011
I have been waiting “forever” to get to capture the guys/girls in their boats. Several times I have come over the river at sunset and they were out doing their training. I always wanted to stop and get a picture from the overpass. It seems that would have been my best bet. I did not realize how hard it was to get a good picture. Of course these guys are going at like 70 strokes per MINUTE too. And then I discovered even though I had my 75-300mm lens with me, the guys coming to the finish line were on the south side of the river and it was still hard to capture them. When I get the few “good ones” edited, I will post a link on my blog @ 1000beautifulthings.wordpress.com
Nonetheless it was a great day overall. I got to enjoy my day out, spend time with a great friend, and now I must get back up and prepare to do it all over again for World Photowalk here in Norman tomorrow. Cannot wait!!!
