I was asked to shoot the crosstown rivals, Los Angeles Kings at the Anaheim Ducks, last Wednesday which always proves to be an exciting game. It was just a high intensity game with a lot of physicality. It is always a hassle to get to Anaheim, especially since I have a 3-5pm class on Wednesday, but I was able to make it 15 minutes before hand. This gives me limited spots to shoot from since all the regulars have already chose their spots. Well I guess I work with what I get, unfortunately I was unlucky with the second and third periods having more action on the other side of the ice. Well, photography is both luck and skill, as long as you can predict what may happen. But for professional sports, the outcome of games isn’t necessarily a cut and dry ending.
