The University of Minnesota had a home meet with Illinois last night, 1/25/14. It was a fun meet, Illinois has a great team, and it was very close, with the Gophers winning at the end, after their great floor sets. I just love the Gophers' choice of music! It is so strong and the choreography of all the women's routines is just so good. And the tumbling was great last night.
I am using an old school film camera. an old 35mm Minolta SLR with a non zoom, cheaper-end telephoto lens. I am trying to capture action shots, but it is difficult with the equipment I'm using. For sure it produces better pictures than the digital camera I was using, but I'm still not happy with how the pictures are turning out. I'm using a 400 speed film, which does produce grainy enlargements, but does stop the action better than 200 speed. Maybe I'll try an even faster speed film next time, but that will mean even more grain. Maybe I'll check into a digital SLR, but for now that's just a dream!
Here are a few of the shots from last night.
