Photo of the Week for March 1st to March 7th

It was another slow week other than the weekend where I ended up putting in around 44 hours of shooting time. Its that time of year, gymnastics is in full force and I enjoy shooting it! Of course in doing this event this weekend I missed the Tyson Cup Gymnastics event in Worcester, MA much closer to home than this job. But it was worth the time and effort put in. One down note from the weekend was that my tried and trusted D700’s shutter failed on me. I’ll take it though figure I got 14+ months out of it and 215300+ shots from it. IT was well worth it. It is at Nikon right now being repaired and I should have it back soon, hoping to get another 200000 shots out of it!!

On to the Photo of The Week. Since I only shot some gymnastics this past week thats what get posted!! Finished the weekend with just around 20000 shots if not more tough to tell when I had to use 2 cameras.

You may notice the ISO of the shots this week. Yes that is not a typo and I shot at 10000iso. The lighting was very tough to work with at the event. More so than many other place I have shot at. Of course these are just some of the shots from the last night as generally I dump my images every rotation and with that I write over the previous shots. Since I was shooting for a company I do not get to keep my images as they paid me for the work I did for them These were rescued using the Sandisk RescuePRO software so I could have a few images to show this week!!

Hope you enjoyed! I have some interesting work for next weeks POTW, also have another long gymnastics weekend!!
