Finishing up the week with some final images from

Finishing up the week with some final images from last Saturday’s Scots Cross Country at Upjohn Park, a day marked by unseasonably warm weather and some really good light

Not that the competitors care one jot about the latter but they will no doubt hit the sack tonight happier in the knowledge that, when it comes to race time tomorrow, they will be setting off in temperatures expected to be no higher than the mid-teens

Conditions much more conducive to good times and having some fun whilst they navigate their way around the course

It’s Thursday which means the weekend is not too

It’s Thursday which means the weekend is not too far away — and it also means it’s time to turn our thoughts to what this Saturday holds, sports wise

Last week we were out at Upjohn Park; this week it is back to Upjohn Park that we find ourselves heading once more but, on this occasion, for the Knox hosted race that is traditionally run at St Ives Showgrounds

Whether it will be the identical route to that used by Scots — or an alternate one such as that used previously for the State Championships — we will have to wait and see

The weather forecast is for another fine morning, albeit a bit fresher than last week, but with a bit of a breeze blowing; in other words, almost perfect conditions for the runners

And for me too!

This afternoon I uploaded images both from last we

This afternoon I uploaded images both from last weekend’s Cross Country at Upjohn Park and the Rugby vs Cranbrook to the peterwade.photography website

As always the fastest way to view them is to head straight to the Recent Shoots page

In the meantime a few more from the “Battle of Bellevue Hill” — Scots vs Cranbrook

Whilst we had rugby action on the weekend it wasn’t quite rugby as we know it. Both teams took advantage of the trial conditions — particularly given each school plays in a competition run by different associations — to sort out some of their set plays and to focus on a few areas in need of remedial work

And that made for a bit of early stop/start action as coaches used it as an opportunity to refine their strategies

But having said that, once things kicked off in earnest, there was some good early season rugby on offer which augurs well for the season proper when it kicks off in a few weeks.

A few more from the “Battle of Bellevue Hill” — Scots vs Cranbrook

To me, rugby and winter are synonymous. But winter

To me, rugby and winter are synonymous. But winter sure seemed a long way off when the refs blew their whistle to start last Saturday’s matches.

25 degrees is certainly a touch warm for someone to be lacing up the footy boots but, heck, who cared?

Rugby is back!

As feared there were a few (enforced) changes made

As feared there were a few (enforced) changes made to my Saturday schedule after I hit the “GO” button for my last post

Although in much warmer conditions than what we had been anticipating the cross country went ahead as scheduled. And given it was only the second real race of the season it was seriously hard work (and I guess that went for the athletes too!)

But at least it was dry and the sun was shining which made for some good — and occasionally testing — light

I had initially been penciled in to photograph four rugby matches but, due to some recently reinitiated COVID restrictions, that was wound back to just two — neither of which was a full scale hit out

Even so it was great to be paired up with the long lens again and to spend a Saturday afternoon charging around the place like I was a young buck once more

Given it was Mother’s Day I didn’t have as much opportunity as usual to get stuck into my images but did manage to punch out some from the cross country; I will have a few from the rugby tomorrow

Looks like all is “GO” for school sport tomorr

Looks like all is “GO” for school sport tomorrow — although with a few tweaks to the operating instructions — which means it is shaping up as a very busy day for me. But, after last year, I am certainly not going to whinge about that

The morning sees me up early to head out to Upjohn Park in Rydalmere for Round 2 of the CAS/GPS Cross Country. After the rain of the last couple of days it could well be a bit sloppy for the competitors — but the photographer in me is hoping that that might actually be the case!

And then, afterwards, it is back to Bellevue Hill to cover some rugby

Time to wind up the week with images from last Saturday’s cross country, all of which probably come under the header of “Caption This” (and one does potentially qualify for Gorby Of The Month too!)

As I write we are beginning to receive notificatio

As I write we are beginning to receive notification of some COVID regulations being reimposed/tightened

What that will mean, if anything, for weekend sport we will know when we know but, with a little luck, I will still be able to take photos in the same way that I was for some sports last year — but whether that includes cross country…!

So I guess the message is that you should make the most of today and tomorrow’s posts just in case there are not too many coming down the pike after that

In the meantime a few more images of the competitors pounding around North Ryde Common whilst competing in last Saturday’s Newington race

As foreshadowed yesterday I have uploaded images f

As foreshadowed yesterday I have uploaded images from the last two CAS/GPS Cross Country races to the peterwade.photography website

Best way to view them is to head to either the Recent Shoots page or the Gallery page dropdown menu and click on Cross Country

Whilst I try to post as many photos from each race to both the peterwade.photography Instagram and Facebook pages you will find lots more on the website than my social media feeds

The starter’s gun has just been fired!
