The Big O 2016!
There's a lot of derby that happens at The Big O. It's the equivalent of three WFTDA divisional tournaments in one weekend. No one can possibly shoot it all. Here are some photo highlights of my version of the Big O!

Day 0
walking around Eugene taking photos
On Thursday evening I walked around a bit taking photos.
The following is a photo of a PHONE BOOTH. Which is different than a phone on a stick.

Day 2
Minnesota fans at the Big O 2016
It's never too early for Minnesota fans. The Minnesota fans may be the most dedicated and passionate fans in all of roller derby. Maybe even in all of sport.

Track 1
Track 2
Track 3
And a TV lounge, with a TV playing the live stream of what's happening just 40 feet away.
This is a set that a year or two from now, I'll look at to remind myself where I might possibly clamp my super-clamps holding the radio-triggered remote flash units.

I recently acquired this fancy little point and shoot, and it has a feature that is new to me, but familiar to many photographers, many people even. Before about a month ago, I had never used this feature (outside a handful of fancy-phone snaps) in eight years of derby shooting. It's call AUTO-FOCUS. And what can I say, this is brilliant. Check out the beeeooooteeful bokay!
