Anytime :) I also took these pictures with the tourist camera (20D) from where I sat. Actually I am not really a tourist since I have been back to Hong Kong for a while. ;)

Pictures of Tan Fook and Wan Wah side by side. I do agree the Malaysia Players (LCW, Wan Wah and Tan Fook) showed great sportsmanship in the Hong Kong Open 2006. They won the heart of the audiences with their skills and sportsmanship.

thanks for the pics;)
i love tan fook and wan wah:p
 
Nice pics... :) How i wish we have more of those pics. Thanks for those who contributed.

winston, thanks for sharing the pics....wow, considering you sat somewhere in the stands, those pics are quite sharp, even after you reduced the size of it...;) :cool:

Off topic:BTW, mind telling us what lens(es) you used to take those pics?? And if you have other pics, would you mind sharing those also??thx:) :cool:

yes, i am, esp. want to compare types of lenses in different circumstances with different lighting condition etc. Actually, if you didn't know, if you go to the Chit-Chat sub-forum and look into the Badminton Photography thread, i've posted a few times recently..;) :)

I was using the Canon EF70-200mm F2.8L IS USM. I must confessed that I enjoyed the games so much and I didn't really take many pictures. The seat that I had also gave me limited angle to take those pictures since it was behind all those big TV cameras.
 
Pic. 1 Hong Kong Cheerleaders for Hong Kong 2006 Open ;) (they are actually dancers performed during intermission :) )
Pic. 2 Chinese Percussion during intermission while the audiences rushed off to the yonex souvenior store to buy some Hong Kong Open 2006 editon Yonex T-Shirt (the one that LD and LCW wore with the dragon on the side) and line up for LD, LCW, TG and CW autographs in the lobby.
Pic. 3 One more picture for the Wan Wah and Tan Fook's fans. The playing style of these dynamic duo is one of a kind.

winston, sir, thanks for the info...wow, considering your seat location and the camera lens you're using, i must admit, you really did a very good job. Even from that far off the distance, from looking at all your pics, they are "super" sharp, action or non-action ones. Too bad the lighting wasn't as desirable as you wanted...Good job, again!..;):):cool:
On that note, maybe for next yr's HK Open, you can join the BC Photography Fraternity in HK with Cheung and red00ecstrat..a triple-team task would be wonderful..:) :cool:

This should be interesting and I can learn from Red00ecstrat and Cheung since they took great pictures. I am still experiencing taking pictures in high speed with low light. :) :rolleyes:
 
I could see Lin Dan trying to make amends by wearing a Chinese 'cap' during the prize giving ceremony! How come LCW is barren on his head?
