Serena Williams Last Night

[Dana's Eye]

I swear she was looking RIGHT at me!



the rest of the set is here: Dana's Eye

[Hayward Taylor]

she is waving at you .. great timing

[jakethepig]

What a lovely moment for you to capure and keep. She looks like she knows you.

Dave.

Now all you need is her signature on it...lol
Great shot

[gturner]

those are fantastic shots. Where you press or just in the stand? If that was with the 70-200 F/4, I am really excited... mine is on the way and if they come out half as good I will be thrilled


I watched Serena at Wimbledon 2 years ago, but she was hammered by Henin. Venus is without question the best lady player I have ever seen. Like Federer, when she gets to a ball, it comes out of the middle of the racquet!

Yeah...I think its because I was in the front row with a big lens. I guess she's trained herself to find the folks who can get close up and smile for them.

Ha. Good luck to me! I have been very near her on a few occasions, but I have never asked for an autograph (even on a flight back from Australia, but I had seen her get slaughtered on the court the day before, so I figured autographs were kinda out of the question). Plus she is....imposing...to say the least.

I wasn't press. I tried to shoot it for a sponsor, but they only had daytime slots and I have a day job, even if its only 1 mile away from the tournament. I bought tickets and was lucky enough to be in the front row.

I would LOVE to go to Wimbledon. Its the only slam I haven't been to. HOW did you get tickets? BTW, I also prefer Venus. But don't tell my new best friend Serena!

[windrider86]

Great shot. You should be very proud!

[Bernzfotos]

yes a great shot - went to your website to view 18 more taken at the same match - great tennis action shots. Cheers, Bernz

Like most things in life, its not what you know, its who you know!

It is a real treat, I get to go most years mens quarters or ladies semis
