That's the 1st Strike, Pat Logue's 74 Viking. I don't recall seeing the Game On down there all week come to think of it...

On typical trips my camera will be set up with a F-s Nikkor 55-200 mm lense.
I can usally get some shots of the billfish jumping from quite a distance and then I will switch lenses to the 18-55 for the shots close to the boat. There is a lense 18-200 that would ommit the lense switch which can be a pain in the ass especially in a hard reverse with water everywhere.

I've got that 18-200 VR coming my way for xmas. I'm told it suffers from a little lens creep, but I can't wait to see how the VR holds up on the water.

Finally had a chance to check out some of the photos we shot during the Championship from the chase boat. These were done with a Nikon D40 set in sports mode.

Here's Tim with a release:

I really like the backing-down shots. Here's 1st Strike flooding the cockpit. Impressive to see a 74 Viking dance like this one:

And just to prove that the Bertram girls can also dance, here's Desperado on a hot fish:

I've got a few more to post up here in a few more minutes.

Here's a couple from our fun-fish day on Sunday--nice way to relax after the tournament.

Sailfish, incoming and inverted!

Here's a stud dorado we invited to dinner:

Here's a few from the start.

Sam, did you have a polarized filter on a couple of those shots?

Swami · 12-14-2007, 03:29 PM

No filter Glen, camera was straight out of the box.
