….I promise that these are the last of my favourites for 2017
Playing with a telephoto lens is new for me and this year I loved experimenting with my new toy. One of the things that I enjoyed doing was trying to catch action shots. I found it tricky timing the shot. So often I would take the shot too early or too late and only get part of the subject or none of it in the photo. Here are two shots that I’m particularly fond of. I’m sure they are far from perfect but it’s a work in progress.

The hockey shot was at a local hockey arena in Toronto and the horse and rider were at the Royal Winter Fair, also in Toronto.
