I can't believe what a major production the competition is, lots of dedicated band members (and parents!), which is great!Cathi Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12676321721429344241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511981110494089272.post-54488693172039159162010-11-08T22:01:29.029-05:002010-11-08T22:01:29.029-05:00These are some very cool shots as well!

They even change out a portion of their uniforms each year to match their theme. I have to say, these kids put in so many hours and the artwork on their props (done by the art department)is outstanding. As for the 70-300 - I hand held. I had a tripod in the back of the car, but didn't feel like hauling it in. Not sure they would even let me use it in the stands.Nickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17236806773789677957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511981110494089272.post-6959383178609028922010-11-08T14:39:30.255-05:002010-11-08T14:39:30.255-05:00I've never seen a band competition either! Ver...I've never seen a band competition either! Very impressive, and it looks like most everyone really puts their hearts and souls into this (except maybe the tomato cage band????? Was it meant as a joke?) And your shots are fantastic! I just scrolled through a few days and you really worked that 70-300! Did you use a tripod, or are you just naturally steady-as-a-rock? The "Fiske" guide gave me a little heart palpitation just looking at it--ah! the stages we parents must go through to off-load (I mean , LAUNCH!) our offspring!Angela2932https://www.blogger.com/profile/17740350969313163956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511981110494089272.post-24642862767027086072010-11-08T14:28:16.203-05:002010-11-08T14:28:16.203-05:00I've never seen a band competition; it looks a...I've never seen a band competition; it looks as though it would be fun. I had no idea they used props; I just thought they got out there, played and marched. You did a great job in the low-light conditions, Nicki.pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09709075846870284285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511981110494089272.post-2354281830933040182010-11-08T08:39:50.584-05:002010-11-08T08:39:50.584-05:00These are great shots.
