Re: Jimmie's Photos - ITF Büschl Open 2012
Okay...and now for something local...literally
I went to the German Junior Indoor Championships yesterday as it happened just 30 minutes from where I live, it's the off season and I'm generally way too bored apparently
You'll never know, maybe one day some of these gals make it big... some have arrived on ITF level at least
Photo conditions sucked as the courts were poorly lit, nets everywhere..so not a lot of variety as I mostly sticked to portraits and stuff like that.

Re: Jimmie's Photos - ITF Büschl Open 2012
Wow Jimmy these are terrific pictures - are you a professional photographer? What lens/ lenses did you use when you were there?

Re: Jimmie's Photos - ITF Büschl Open 2012
Thanks! Nope, not a pro..just a photo hobbyist
Most of these shots were made with the Nikon 70-200mm 2.8 VR II as it was too dark for my 300mm on all but one court.

Re: Jimmie's Photos - ITF Büschl Open 2012
Your pictures are very good. Thanks!
Sometimes I worry about very young players all taped up due to injuries. Do they have the physique for the sport? But that's neither here nor there.

Re: Jimmie's Photos - German Junior Indoor Championships 2012
She was pretty good. The match I saw was a beatdown, she won the second set 6-0 in record time. She made it into the SF where she lost today, the other three players in the SF were all top seeds.
She's young (turned 18 in April) and I can see her having a decent ITF career at least. Not sure she'll make it much further than that but she does have a promising looking forehand.
The results this week have to be put into perspective though as the "star players" among the German Juniors didn't even show up here. Carina Witthöft is busy with school and Antonia Lottner has chosen to skip this tournament in favor of preparing for the German Championships next week. There all top German players bar Kerber/Görges/Lisicki/Petkovic & Barthel will play, including Annika Beck. Willig will have to qualify to make it into the main draw.
