Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby

Having never photographed Horse Racing, I was thrown in at the deep end last weekend at the Curragh.  The Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby was to take place on Sunday afternoon, so out I went on Friday evening to get my first taste of horse racing.  It poured down all evening and despite having rain covers for the cameras, both I and them got soaked right through.  The switching between the "big" lens (Nikon 400mm f2.8) and the "not so big" lens (Sigma 70-200 f2.8), as the horses pasted the 100 yard mark, took some getting used to.  Thankfully Sunday's weather proved to be completely different with blinding sunshine and temperatures that would redden most Irish faces!!!

Europa League Final - FC Porto v SC Braga

What can only be described as the biggest match I have ever photographed, the Europa League Final between FC Porto and SC Braga (both from Portugal) was staged at the Dublin Arena (or Aviva Stadium) on Wednesday May 18th, 2011.

Some will say that the game wasn't great.  That aside, to be involved in one of the biggest sporting events in Europe this year is pretty darn cool.  Also, to capture the winning goal, the celebrations and the trophy presentation made it all the more special ........
