The St Stephens and St Agnes High School annual Spring Flight lacrosse tournament brings the best girls teams from around the country each April.  This tournament has become a regular for my spring schedule and I look forward to the event each year.   Below are a few samples from my day in Alexandria at SSSAS.

Heartbreaker in College Pak

Saturday in College Park was by far the most entertaining lacrosse game in sometime.   # 6 Maryland was down big most of the game and charged back to tie with 26 seconds remaining only to lose in OT.   It was great to see the joy from the Nova bench.  Complete game recap from Inside Lacrosse posted here.  

First Game of the New Season

Trying out a new game-day set-up with a Pelican hard case.  This case is smaller than my rolling bag set-up but also allows the storage of my 300 2.8 lens.  A few sample from the Georgetown vs Towson game today.  

New Camera, First game with 1DX Mk II

First tryout of new gear and the Canon 1DX Mark II.   Still getting the feel for all the new features and this camera is amazing.   Way fast and I could have pushed the ISO even more for this old St Albans gym.   A few samples below.  

2017 season is right around the corner

The new season is around the corner and good to see some of my HS photos used for the IL 2017 Indoor Lacrosse Championships this weekend. 

Sometimes a Mess Up Works Out

Sure was not paying attention and I must have bumped my camera settings and now I am shooting at 1/90 sec, f/8 for half the game.   A few made for an interesting effect, somewhat a salvage. 

Here are a few of the non 1/90 sec favorites.

New Instagram Account

New to Instagram and getting a few photographs posted this weekend.  Should be fun and trying something new, give me a follow.  Instagram account - mikebahniuk
