Are any of you sports shooters who would like to form a study group like some of the other groups that are using DPChallenge as a launch point? I have been shooting sports for my local newspaper for a little over a year now. I would like to form a small group photographers who share the sports photography interest and would like to offer critique and commentary on the subject. If you are interested, please sound off here...

I know i am not very good but I really love shooting sports. It is such an adrenalin rush. I would love to join so I can learn more etc.
What do you think?

I shoot sports...my favorite is skateboarding which is a bit of a different beast with flash set up etc. but i also shoot sports for the paper bball, football...a lil wrestling and volleyball.
To be honest im not passionate about shooting that stuff, but I have a good time with it and I'd like to be involved in critique and commentary with it.

I'm interested too. I shoot for my college paper and am sorta' learning as I go, but it's a blast, and I'd like to learn more and contribute what I can.

The blog concept that is being used for the other groups seems to work well. Do any of you have blogs at //www.blogger.com? If not, you may want to set one up. It's free and it's a good way to keep up with what everyone else in the group is doing.

I'll set one up for myself for this group as well. When you have it ready, post a link here and we will get started...

Here is the list of participants I have so far:

Zippy
OdysseyF22
hsteg
swinging_johnson_v1
suemack
petrakka
lentil
jmsetzler

Anyone else interested in participating?

You don't have to post images here. It would be better to post them to your blog with your comments. These blogger blogs have the RSS feed where you can create live bookmarks. If you setup the live bookmark to the site, you can see when someone has posted something new from your bookmarks listing.

Thanks! Got one up on the blog just a bit ago!

Does everyone know how to create the live bookmark?
12/18/2005 04:46:53 PM · #23
This sounds good, i've just started to shoot some hockey, and I'd be interested in following along.

I haven't figured out how to create the live bookmark in Internet Explorer, but I know how to do it in FireFox. When you come to a webpage that has a live feed, there will be a little orange icon in the lower right corner of the browser window. When you click on that icon, it allows you to add the bookmark. When you view the bookmark in your bookmarks list, it will contain a fly-out window that lists updated posts to that website...
