Soon after kicking off Surfer Photos (the very next day in fact), I was explaining the concept to friend/mentor (and ex NRL player) David… and was inspired to extend the idea to other sports – e.g. Football…. So… that same day I registered and established www.footyphotos.com.au.
Footy Photos
The concept of Footy Photos is (surprise surprise) very similar to Surfer Photos…. I (initially) will take photos at various public football matches (not tied necessarily to a particular code – Rubgy League, Rugby Union, Aussie Rules, Soccer, Touch Footy, etc are all fine). Once the photos have been taken, reviewed and processed, the “best of” will be published on the site, to be made available for the players themselves to download for free (or buy higher resolution images or prints) if they so wish.
Today I trotted along to the local Intrust Super Cup (one of the main feeders to the NRL competition) and took some action photos of the Easts Tigers vs Mackay Cutters game. Of the 400+ photos, I processed and published about 100 at Intrust Super Cup – Easts Tigers vs Mackay Cutters – 1 June 2014
Here are some of my favourites from the day :
