A game of two halves
At the start of last week I was planning to head down to Glasgow to photograph the Celtic Connections concert that I mentioned previously, but the Royal Concert Hall wouldn't budge on their half-hour photo policy so I had to scrap that idea. (Turning down national news coverage on the day that Celtic Connections announced a £15,000 grant for "market research" to gauge public interest. Hmm.)
Then I arranged to go and cover the Ross County match, away to Clyde, but it turned out that the team bus was leaving early due to the bad weather and I couldn't get to Dingwall in time to catch it, so that'll have to wait until another week.
Thankfully it was a good weekend for local football so I thought I'd try something that I've never done before, that being to cover two matches. Not easy if you don't drive! But the bus got me into Invergordon a quarter of an hour before their match against Dornoch, giving me just enough time to get up to the pitch and grab photos of the team sheets before the match started. I shot about 35 minutes of that match…

…before dashing back down into town to catch the bus over to Alness, which got me there in time for the second half of their match against Golspie.

Nice action. I don’t shoot soccer all that often, so I have a hard time getting anything good.
By the way I can’t imagine working without a car. The public transportation here is practically non existent. It would take me half the day just to get to the office.
