Long Beach Middle School Girls League Track Meet

This week Long Beach Middle School held their girls league track meet at Lakewood High.  Sports wise the middle school sporting events held in Long Beach are at the top of things I love to shoot.  These kids are our future stars and will be show casing their talents on television one day.

 

Everything shot here was taken with the Canon Mark IIn and a 300 f/2.8L IS.  My aperture ranged from f/2.8 to f/4 and my ISO went from 500 (early morning) to 100.

 

Weather was perfect and the action was great.  Enjoy the shots.

 

Long Beach Middle School Girls Practice Track Meet

NO sunsets today, this weekend was all about sports.  Saturday morning found me at Lakewood High covering the Long Beach Middle School Girls Practice Track meet.  I absolutely love shooting track and with the middle school girls track here that only means one thing - high school track is just around the corner.

 

Here are just a few of the many I like from Saturday's meet.

 

Middle School Girls Shot Putters

This past Saturday was a busy morning starting with some middle school track. Long Beach Middle School was holding their girls league track meet at Lakewood High, but unfortunately I was unable to cover the whole event, instead I was only able to grab some shots of the shot putters before heading to Millikan High to cover the middle school boys basketball championships.

So here are a few of my favorites from the shot putters.

Long Beach Middle School Girls Track - League Finals

I covered Long Beach's Middle School Girls League Track meet, which was held at Lakewood High School this past Saturday. It was overcast pretty much all day going from dark luming clouds to simply cloud cover with a little bit of rain coming down briefly.

Either way, it was a great morning and great to be out shooting. I have to say I look forward to rain when out covering sports for a couple of reasons. First I feel it add impact to the sport and to be honest, I just feel alive when out in the rain shooting.

So, here are some shots from the days events. Congratulation to all those young ladies who placed in their events.

Long Beach Middle School Girls Track

I recently had the opportunity to cover the Long Beach Middle School Girls Practice Track Meet held at Lakewood High School this last Saturday. Although I've been sick the last week and wasn't sure I was going well enough to cover this I was able to get out and take some shots.

Here are several shots to share from the meet.
