It's BASKETBALL Season!

Uploaded: December 22, 2014 | Entered: December 22, 2014 16:18:32

Description

High school football in Philadelphia is over. No more FREEZING our fingers, toes, and butts in the biting, windy, wet conditions on the field. Now we just have to deal with terrible lighting, yellow walls, and kids and parents running in and out of the gyms, crossing in front of our cameras, and being run over by the players (who are pretty good at avoiding such accidents). But basketball is SO fast and SO exciting! Bring it ON!

I'm just recovering from a week of raging FLU, and now Jeff is having his turn.

Exif: F Number: 3.2, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/800 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 6400, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 145.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark III
