UCSD at Stanford, 2 November 2011

Scott Uyeno

Scott posted 16 shots to his Flickr set, including good action shots of Sarah Boothe, Joslyn Tinkle, and this one of fresher Erica Payne on defense:

At Kelley Cox's pregame photo seminar we learned about how your camera can unfortunately pick the wrong subject for autofocus, and this is an example: Erica's juuuuust a bit soft and the UCSD player is sharp—but it's a good shot anyway.

Baranduin Briggs

Baranduin posted to Smugmug, including team interactions, action shots of the Ogwumike sisters doing their usual incredible things, and this of fresher Amber Orrange driving:

David Cortesi

We uploaded 7 shots to a Smugmug gallery, with pics of Boothe and James on defense, some fans, and this one of Erica Payne waiting for play to resume:

More??

About 20 people turned up for Kelley Cox's very interesting talk, so maybe we'll get pictures from more lenses soon. If so we'll do a new blog post for this game.

Photo Seminar Before First Game!

If you have ever tried to take pictures inside Maples, even just for your own use, you'll want to come a little early to the first exhibition game, Wednesday November 2. At 5:45 in Kissick auditorium we'll have a presentation by a pro sports photographer on how to take good pictures from your seat. See our previous post for details.

Meanwhile, some pics were taken at the open practice last week! If you are new to this blog, remember, we only post a few pictures here as teasers. Click through to each photographer's gallery page for more, more, more!

Michael came early and snagged a seat in what is usually the VIP section, and posted some pics to his flickr set including this of the early warmups:

Action photo seminar to start new season!

Stanford Women's basketball starts Wednesday night, November 2nd, bringing us a new season and new faces to capture. To start us off we are privileged to present Kelley L. Cox with a seminar on Shooting From the Seats—Taking action photos with the camera you have from the seat you get.

Kelley L. Cox is a professional sports photographer (click through to learn all about her). She shoots professional and amateur sports all around the Bay Area, but has a special fondness for women's basketball in general and Stanford in particular. You might remember this shot of hers from last December:

Kelley will be presenting in Kissick Auditorium starting at 5:45 on Wednesday 11/2. We will wrap up in plenty of time for the 7pm game. Bring your camera and your questions!
