Yep, IT happened. I got done completing my first blog at 6 a.m. on Saturday morning, after a day that had lasted 22 hours.enCommunityServer 2.1 SP2 (Debug Build: 2.18)http://blog.newsweek.com/blogs/olympicpix/archive/2008/08/10/vince-s-blog-for-today.aspx#559793Sun, 10 Aug 2008 14:11:23 GMT544c64cf-7058-4151-925a-a0fd041e73dd:559793MarcoTogni.it<p>I like this post!</p> <p>Wow, it must be so frustrating to work in a single place without possibility to move some feet right or left.</p> <p>The 800mm 5.6 seems a good choice to have a pretty different photo from other photographers. I hope you will post some new photos you're going to take with that lens during next days.</p> Blog: Visions of China: A 2008 Olympics Picture Bloghttp://blog.newsweek.com/blogs/olympicpix/archive/2008/08/10/vince-s-blog-for-today.aspx#561296Mon, 11 Aug 2008 12:24:31 GMT544c64cf-7058-4151-925a-a0fd041e73dd:561296iconimaging<p>I love this post and your previous ones!</p> <p>I know what it's like shooting from a box after shooting international rugby this summer from a box. &nbsp;So frustrating to be put in a box with poor angles and backgrounds. &nbsp;I'd like to know if when they decide these positions if there is any consultation with a photographer or if it's chosen by throwing darts at a venue map? </p> <p>Keep doing whatever it takes to get the shot! &nbsp;Love your work and looking forward to reading and seeing more of your work!</p> <p>Is there another site where we can see more of your Olympic shots?</p> Blog: Visions of China: A 2008 Olympics Picture Blog
