incredible hockey goal

I still remember photographing Chris Francis’s incredible goal against Seattle Thunderbirds. Portland Winterhawks was down 3–2, less than 3 seconds to go (2.9 seconds to be exact) and Chris pulled off incredible game tying & winning goal. He’s now with American Hockey League Falcons. Wish the best Chris.

For photographers, image was taken with canon 300 2.8 lens. It is one of the best lens for indoor sports like hockey and backetball. Sometimes it’s difficult to photograph the player, goalie, and the puck all at the same time but knowing where all that happen helps a ton. I was shooing at the 200 level and got lucky there.

Teddy Bear Delivery

Today, I photographed Portland Winterhawks players visiting hospitals to deliver toys and teddy bears to local hospitals. Quick photograph at the Shriners children’s hospital.

Once in a while, I get into a situation where I can’t find any thing to bounce my flash off. Today was the day. It was super high ceiling and if I crank up the power of the flash, I might be able to light the group but it would be pretty much concentrated on their head. That won’t be pretty. I end up bounce the flash straight up and gobo’d the flash so that their face is not lit directly by flash. Then I post processed the image in photoshop.
