It has been sitting around since March and I can't make up my mind whether or not to post it. I came across it again tonight and thought "Why not ask for the LUG's advice?". No flames please, just constructive crits please. http://gallery2.leica-users.org/v/PeterDzwig/album347/EnglandIrelandMarch2006.jpg.html Leica IIIf 35cm Summaron BW400CN 1/500th @ f5.6 (I think) I like taking crowd shots from time to time (missed some great shots at the Stones the other week - didn't take a camera!!!!!). With tcrowds you have to look a bit longer than with most landscapes and see/imagine what is going on in people's minds/faces. This is the East Stand, at Twickenham, the home of Rugby Union (look that up in Wikipedia!), in March this year for England .vs. Ireland for the Five Nations Championship. Ireland had to win to become Champions. The crowd in the stand eas from both sides and some were even engrossed by the game. Some were getting fed up as Ireland went ahead and stayed there and England fell to pieces. Others not, including the (I think) Irishman in the middle-background who had spotted me! Plenty of drinking going on though, and real support for one side by the other. Thanks for looking. Comments, please. Peter Dzwig
