Coaching

Went to my first amateur boxing event at George Bell Arena in Toronto. Here coach Peter Wylie of the Cabbagetown Boxing Club gives some pointers to Sam Gainer between rounds. Sam won the bout.

Cabbagetown BC., not to be confused with Cabbagetown, BC! When I first saw the image I muttered to myself "that has to be a K-5 shot! Nice one.

Sharp and really well defined shot I like this great use of the ropes to add perspective

All the best

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the feedback. Shot this with the K-5 at ISO 3200 with the 18-135 WR lens. I'll have to invest in a faster lens one of these days, but I'm happy with this first effort .
