I love the framing and the shot.  That's something I've always wanted to
do...shoot at a big game.  I've done some local personal work at
Millersville here in Lancaster and it was a lot of fun.

Looks like yesterday to me...certainly not way back.  Way back is somewhere
in the 60s!!!

I've got to admit that I was self-conscious and maybe even a little  
embarrassed.

I worked for a little paper and used equipment I'd bought myself,  
pieced together here and there when I could find a bargain on my $0  
budget.

Our paper (Washington Daily News, circulation 10,000) got credentials  
for college football at several universities. So, I had a chance to  
visit my alma mater (University of North Carolina) on football  
Saturdays to cover the games from the sidelines.

All these "real" pros were there with their photovests and serious,  
fast, long telephotos mounted atop stump-sized monopods. Me, I'm  
toting my Fujica ST-801 and a Series 1 Vivitar 70-210.
