    Rules???

    1 entry per person.
    Image must be taken at the event.
    No identification of photographer permitted in the image
    Images submitted to Dodgykeeper by email, and he'll post them up for voting.

    I think those are the rules?

    My accreditation has also been approved for both games.

    With great difficulty, especially if you're new to sports photography.

    My advice - start out with your local football team at your local pitch, and build up experience of shooting sport before you even consider trying to get accreditation for international football.

    I've been able to get a 400mm f/2.8 for tonight. I just hope the rain stays away. It's looking dull and damp out.

    Just going to pack my bags now. See you all there shortly.

    Hi,

    My name is Stan and was introduced to your board by Paul Walsh............hope you don't think I'm rude (especially when I've never made a posting yet) but would it be OK if I submitted a photo too?

    I don't expect to even get a vote, but I'm very thick skinned :-) at least I think I am.

    Managed to get my first gig at Croker and will be there again Wednesday too .........woo hoo as they say.

    Cheers
    Stan
