Ultimate Frisbee

Baker Park
Here are a couple of players in action in the park. There are about 16 young folk playing and they are very good. You can see the frisbee in flight at the far right. My son Tyson played this sport in high school in Rockville and later at the University of Kentucky as a club sport. I used it with ROTC classes as a form of athletics and recreation. In the background I hear the band has started and they opened with Folsom Prison Blues (Johnny Cash style group) Meanwhile the bell tower tolled 7:00 pm I'd stay and watch ultimate a bit longer sitting here in the field but the nats are a pain!
(Tech: To get this I focused on the grass in the midst of the players and locked auto aperture and focus or else it would have underexposed the players as it picked would have picked up the skylight Green grass carries a value of about middle gray so it is an excellent aperture gauge in challenging exposure situations)
