One month down, a lot more to go.

It's finally October! Although September went by really quick, it left with a bang. Tornadoes, hurricanes, and bipolar weather! Good thing the chilly weather is kicking in for October.

Today was the Brooklyn Tech vs. Jefferson High School homecoming football game. Not surprisingly, we lost 38-40. Our football team isn't so great so I wasn't as disappointed as the rest of the Tech crowd.

Sports photography is very difficult! Yes, this was my first time shooting a game. I did not have proper equipment. I mean, come on, I only have a measly kit lens and a 50! I didn't bring my 50 to the game so Horin lent his to me. The 50 doesn't even begin to provide a focal range long enough to capture action shots. So instead of shooting the players, I tried to focus on the crowd. They weren't very animated. Thank goodness Constantine and the rest of the wrestling team were there to get them cheering.



I prefer these two photos in black and white :)

Is it amazing that this was my first high school football game? New York City high schools aren't very into football, but the teams still put a lot of effort into the games. I feel bad for them because they don't usually get the crowd that they deserve. Tech doesn't have the greatest football team in the city but I still commend them for their dedication. I probably will go to more Tech games in the future, regardless of the sport.
Yay for school spirit. GO BROOKLYN TECH!
