Sports Photo Week 1

so for my blog posts for this class, i kind of thought i would start by exploring some sports photographers and find some inspiration. i guess because i am not really a sports photographer myself and i am not what one would even expect to become one. however i see something in it that could make me a better photographer perhaps or perhaps help me develop who i am. or maybe just learn something new. i thought it was kind of funny that i asked tony after class to give me HIS top ten sports photographers and kind of like the hall of fame that i could be inspired by and start exploring. then right after that class i kind of had this book put in my lap of portraits of basketball players. they are beautiful. i was given the task of scanning the book and therefore now i have the fully scanned book and that is what i want to share right now..just a few selects of images that i like from the book.
