So i didnt take my 400mm as i wanted to practice with my new to me 70-200mmL lens (the ones with the white bits that look professional!) Its very heavy even on a monopod so i switched to a small zoom after half time. Ill post in order but the first one blew my mind! pretty cool i reckon! they were not close to me!
Game of Thrones Duel.
Me thinks we need a hairstylist on board - and maybe a makeup artist! check that sunscreen out!
Jaime making all our hearts sing! and some flutter!
first bounce,
check out that booty
not sure where that punch was aimed
then this happened - and i just kinda swung the monopod straight up - nearly took out the demon fan next to me (ill try harder next time!)
apparently its refuelling!
phoarrrrr Adams
stacks on
Ben getting ready for dancing with the stars once hes won the next three premierships
is it me or does this look awkward??
gratuitous Jaime! - he did kick the goal!
moore moore moore, gimme moore! Seriously this kid means business, he did not quit all day. (he did do one very defender like kick on the wing!) but he marked everything. and if he missed he hit it again.
yeah something not right there!
this whipping boy certainly had a real crack today!
Cult. Hero. take it to the bank! OMG i love this kid! he got smashed by a couple of Dees once, the D crown went nuts, im like, hes still in nappies guys! - and then he got the ball back again, alls quiet on the D front!
I tell ya, Moore did not appreciate sitting out, he is making his claim, such a gutsy performance, this guys, this is our future right here and it looks very bright.
cropped to show those muscles!
I have no idea how to caption this! its like hes praying at the ball!
just checking those thighs - for medical reasons of course 
we sure have some weird shooting approaches
yeah Baby!
and again!!
on the way home:
its seriously pink!
cheers guys! Go Pies, not long now!!

I should also say that Max Lynch looks really promising, tall strong, gutsty. And it was strangely good to see Beams out there.

Thanks TP. Great photos although the pink algae is disturbing.

Nice catch on the refuelling. Maybe its a sign that Treloar will be back to fully fit.

Thanks TP
Really great pictures - the C130 doesn't do refuelling (at least I don't think so) so the pictures are really interesting. Looks like some sort of formation flying but I'm not sure why the loading dock would be open.

I heard it was open for the convoy of Press and for photo opportunities. |

| Thanks for the pics TP. Highlight for me was the Two F18's and C7 flying over. |

Did you change the colour of the Duck's eye aswell. Or is it originally Red?

It looks like a female chestnut teal. Their eyes are that colour naturally although they may have been reddened up a bit by reflection off the pink water.

Nice Pics Jo, has Billy lodged the anti stalking AVO yet?

As well as?? This is pretty much straight out of camera, I tend to shoot under exposed, so i slightly adjusted the exposure and luminosity to how the pic looked to me when i took it!
thats not to say i dont photoshop photos, you bet i do, i figure the camera adds 10 lbs so i take it off (if i like you) with a little GST! But i aint got the time or inclination to photoshop a duck at all, let alone its eye colour! so short answer, yes the ducks eye is red!

Ive always wanted to pluck the Teal feather off of a pacific black duck, getting wet is the only thing that stops me. Im not a hunter though, shooting one is always easier.

Is the water really pink or are you messing with my mind?

Shotgun and Labrador. Black ducks are better eating than Teal or wood ducks.
