SO this week, i ran into two major obstacles. First, it rained. AGAIN. Third time in a row for me having Friday Night light-rain-and-mist-meaning-no-second-camera and I was stuck using my 300 f/4 as the other 300 was with one of my colleagues and the really good lenses were off with the rest of the staff at an away game for UGA.

Between the rain and dealing with the cold i was fighting and perpetual sneezing, i think i made some decent photos. Deep down, i really did care. But a 20 point lead over a one-win team in the rain means I'm leaving at halftime.
