Went to an Atlanta Braves game last week when the played the Phillies. I took my little Digital Rebel with me and here are some shots from the game:
Welcome to Turner Field:
Before taking my seat, I went over and took a peak at the Camera's they use to televise the Games with. I was EXTREMELY impressed with the gear they had:
I spoke briefly with one of the Cameramen and he told me that a single Camera cost between 150,000 and 200,000 Dollars!
Then, A close up on the 60,00-70,000 dollar lens ( ) they hook onto one of these babies!
I dont care how long it takes.. but I WILL find a way to strap that to my 300D :P
One more peak at the cameras.. this time at the controls!
I then went to my seat. I sat 9 rows up from field level which gave me a great photography location!
Umpires get together before tha game gets underway:
Ortiz was the opening pitcher. Unfortunately, he gave up 4 runs in the first 2 innings
It wasnt long till Bobby Cox came out and sent Ortiz to the showers... So long! :P
This little Brave loved his 2 seconds on the Big Screen:
A new thing I hadnt seen before... Braves Cheerleaders! They would walk around the stadium cheering and looking hot!
Chipper Jones provided the highlight of the game by connecting for a 3 run homerun! Here he is about to make contact on that 3 run homerun!
The Media box was just a few rows down.. I saw this and it reminded me of Clovis in his earlier days :P... This kid was actually in the Media box with his 200 dollar camera.. surrounded by equipment worth in the Tens of thousands
Somewhere around the 7th inning... a bad call was made and Bobby Cox had to go argue it!
Give 'em Hell Bobby!
Bobby can't Believe this shite and kicks in total disgust!
Easy now Bobby......Easy.... Oh shite.. he went to far...
Yer Outta Here! ( )
The game continued on without Bobby... Jim Thome was the favorite on the PHillies side!
Here he hails his bat one handed before the pitch!
They gave out the Delta Skymiles award just a few seats from me. Here you can see the card the girl read off of while addressing the crowd!
Haha.. Here you the Delta Cheerleader presenting the Skymiles awayrd right infront of me and up on the big Screen!
Lastly, how can you go to a ball game with a telephoto lens and not put it to work?
... Check out this material 
I had a great time at the ball game! No foul balls... but plenty of pictures!
Hope you enjoyed the photos!
