    This months photo topic is "Sports" -- Maybe go catch some action shots of a local team?

    Happy shooting!
    Again, the rules are simple:
    • Should be be using some canon gear , this is a canon forum after all.
    • Shot with the assignment in mind, go out and shoot something new don't dig up something from the archives.
    • and most importantly have fun.

    This image is one of senior people involved in structured exercise, similar to organized sport, but with the goal of personal fitness, this one is sort of outside the box sport. Camera used is a Canon G15. Senior Exercise Class.jpg

    Did I go to the rugby? No.
    Did I go to the netball? No.

    I went to the sheep shearing. And yes, it is a sport. Well, so I have been told.

    Hopefully Caladina will appreciate these.

    As you know in outback and country areas in New Zealand and Australia it is almost a national sport, nearly as popular as wood-chopping.

    No sheep were harmed with the removal of their wool.

    Keep an eye out. This maybe one challenge that there are no opportunities going for the month.

    Cheers Craig. There are a few of these farm shows now running down our way. Covid put the brakes on them for a while.

    It's good to see these, what I would call country style sports are still ongoing and competitive.
