Sheffield Shield Cricket action.

Hi all
Wemt with a mate to the Sheffield Shield game today at Newcastle's No. 1 sportsground.

Note poor batsman Cameron White. he's taken the big swing only to hear the awful sound of ball on timber. Talk about a lucky pic.

See what strain fast bowling puts on the body, look at the bowler's face.

This batsman also had to walk, as the ball in the pic flew off the bad and into the slips to be caught.

I was using my 450D camera, along with some ancient technology, my Canon 300mm manual focus FD lens, that I bought 2nd hand back in the late 1980's. I use a FD to EOS adapter.
