Unexpected visitor...

Was a photographically busy weekend which started off with my local Photography club FIF (Fotografie INN Fokus) who met at Seegrubbe for some sunset and night shots of Innsbruck and the Inn valley. Seegrubbe is located at 1905m and overlooks Innsbruck which provides some spectacular views.

Here is my favorite of the evening, it is a pano created in the new Lightroom CC which works quite well even on my old laptop.

On Saturday it was again a rugby day where Rugby Club Innsbruck hosted Allgäu Rugby in the South Bavarian League. Was a tough game with Allgäu giving RCI a lot more resistance than the previous game - for more information on this game visit the RCI website here. I borrowed the Canon 1D Mark III from work to have an extra camera so I can take close-up shots and some wide angle shots when the action came close. Here a few of my favorites from Saturday!

We also had a Red Kite watching from high up on Saturday.

Weekend Review

On Saturday I was photographing my local Rugby teams in action in Hatting. The weather was a bit overcast giving a very diffused light which was great for even light. I had my Canon 7D and 100-400mm lens and am pretty happy with the results.

The day started off with the Womens's 7s tournament hosted by WRCI - you can find the Report on their Website here with my photo gallery on flickr here

Here my favourite of the women's 7s tournament.

The men's game involving Rugby Club Innsbruck vs SG Fürstenfeldbruck/UFG was late afternoon with a 15:00 KO. My local Team won the game handsomely and you can find the match report here and the photo Gallery on flickr here.  

Here my favourite from the mens game.

Next game (Saturday 25th April) RC Innsbruck will play at home (Hatting) and KO will be at 14:00. See you there. More info to follow.
