Had a great day for myself at the Goodyear Ballpark on Wednesday. I grew up in central Kentucky and have been a Reds fan most all my life - so this was a real treat. The Reds moved their spring training to Goodyear this spring.
I brought my Canon 50D plus a 28-135mm and my relatively new 100-400mm lens and that made for a pretty hefty bag to tote around. When I entered the ball park, they had me open my camera bag -- and were very interested in examining the content of the long tubular case inside in more detail. All of the long shots are with the 100-400 from the deck area above the seating areas. That is an amazing lens! I actually didn't sit in my assigned seat at all during the game. The ushers allowed me to rest in any open seat unless the owner of the seat showed.
Have set up a Flickr slide show HERE to view a few of the images. Once it starts, you can control all of the settings with your mouse:
Lower right corner to toggle full screen, lower left to pause. Click the center of any pic to toggle captions.
