Description

Something very different from my usual postings. This is Jack Johnson of the Los Angeles Kings NHL hockey team. Their practice rink is close by and being a fan of the team I stopped by for one and seen what shots I could get. Diff from shooting Macro. Limited light had me cranked up to 800 ISO, so knew I would be dealing with a lot of noise. But for this size image with the help of Neat Image Noise Reducing software it came out alright. Thanks for looking. Bruce PS For those that wonder... that is Alec Martinez (left) and Willie Mitchell (middle)and Asst. Coach John Stevens (right) in the background.

Great capture of the movements of Johnson!!!. I've never seen a hockey game, because here does not get used (ice is needed) and not go on TV. But from what I've managed to see in the movies, is a very fast and dangerous game (Oh no, that was Rollerball, sorry, LOL). When I visited NY, was scheduled a game, but could not attend.
