Tonight’s game wasn’t too terribly exciting. In fact, it was a little dissapointing. No wonder the stadium has been less than half full all season, filling to 3/4 only when the Heat, Lakers, or Clippers are in town. Tayshaun and Austin Daye returned to the Palace today for the first time as Grizzlies. I made more of an effort to make interesting images, and I think I made an improvement. I hope to improve each game. I operated 3 remotes in addition to my two handheld cameras. I am starting to think that maybe 3 remotes is a little too ambitious. However I am getting worth while images on all three remotes every game, so it is a toss up. It does take quite some time to set up all three remotes in addition to another 2 operated by my boss. So I need to figure out if it is worth it. Overall I am happy with my shooting for the game. I think I made some good images. Have a look, and any constructive criticism is welcome. -Brian
