I am heading to Iowa next week for my grandson’s 18th birthday and to watch a few of his football games. He has a pretty good reputation and is being scouted for college. I am planning to take photos at the games, but haven’t done this before. Years ago I shot youth soccer, have done some...

Another hot day, heat haze, extreme light, shadows, contrast (and I've run out of excuses). This time I took the EOS 90D and went to use the light for the action; Cadwell Park at The Mountain; this camera, coupled to the 100-400 does produce.

Water based turfs (hockey for example) cast a strong green cast on athletes' skin on sunny days. How do you handle that other than in the post work?

Got the opportunity to cover a regional tournament for a team today. Here are a couple that I really liked.

We then move on to Silverstone for the British GT, 3 hour Silverstone 500 race. What a contrast to the previous weekend, but I do like shooting in the rain. 1 Darren Leung / Dries Vanthoor by Stuart Yates, on Flickr 69 Steven Lake / Nathan Harrison by Stuart Yates, on Flickr Stuart

A busy few weeks, so time to catch up on posting. Starting with the Goodwood 81MM, a few from the Can-Am demonstration. These have to be some of the best sounding cars you can hear. Jason Miller driving the distinctive Shadow MKIII by Stuart Yates, on Flickr 1969 Open Sports Ford designed by...

Southern Oregon University played their spring game last Saturday. This time it was against the top college team from Japan. There are 200 college football programs in Japan. This was the fourth time this team has come to Ashland, Oregon since the mid 1980's for what is called the Mills Bowl...
