July 31st, 2009 - Day 64

I pretty much got the shot I wanted here: I wanted the net to be the focal point with some action in the background. I would have liked to get closer to the net, but didn't want to disrupt the game. I got a funny bonus though upon developing this. I love that Jason is leaning towards the side to hit the ball, but if you look closely, his beer stays completely upright. That is dedication!

Good action shot. It is funny that Jason doesn't miss a step with his beer. It is important that you don't drop any!

Ping pong, one of my favorite games growing up. Somehow it never occure to us to play it with a beer on our hands.

That's funny - Jason keeping control of his beer while still playing the game. I like action shots; they're fun.

I think that beer-in-hand is the only way to play ping-pong - and most other games - but that's just me. We've seen just a few action shots since this series began, but you do as well with a moving subject as you do with a static one. Also, I think the black and white gives this image a somewhat retro feel.

I love the action shot. It looks like your friend has his priorities in line.
