Back to the Future (Tennis Edition)

I’ve been trying to get practice with sports I haven’t shot in a while, so today I went out to shoot tennis. The last time I shot tennis was at the NCAA Championship in May of 2007 (here and here).

I think I did better than back then, which I’d hope because I’m much more experienced now. Further, I checked out a 300mm f/4 lens and 1.4x teleconverter from the equipment pool in Grady so by combing those I was able to get a 420mm f/5.6.

Also, I know there are a number of shots below the cut that are similar, but I liked them all so I thought I’d put this up since its just practice anyway.
