Some pics I took at the Raptors Fanfest yesterday. After getting hassled by the fellas at the gates because I had a "professional" camera, they just gave up and let me in since it wasnt a real game anyways. I thought this year's open practice sucked compared to last year. I was expecting them to play a scrimmage game instead of sitting there shooting half court shots. But they did give away lots of balls and tshirts. Enjoy the pics, they suck and I suck at taking pics.
I was watching the Score's recap of the event and it was pretty funny. They'd ask the little kids about if they thought the Raps would do better and they'd be all optimistic and cheery (I think we can win in the high 40's; I think we'll do good cuz of Charlie Villanueva, etc.). But then they asked the little kids about Rob Babcock. Honestly, I never knew one name could evoke so much anger and hate in toddlers (I hate him so much; I don't care about him, etc.). It was pretty funny.

The quality is really good, and if you were to say they were from Raptors.com I wouldn't have thought twice about it.
Thanks guys, Im no pro photographer, I just take pictures as a hobby. And what better way to put two hobbies together right? Oh the camera is a Canon Digital Rebel 300D. Nothing fancy..its pretty old.
Those are actually some pretty decent shots. The action is centered nicely, and it seems you got the players people would be interested in. Nice job and thanks for sharing, I know I enjoyed them.
