Sun 23rd Aug 2009: NSPL 2009 - Round 6. 23/08/2009
The NSPL made its first visit to Bricket Wood. Yorkies' setup was first rate and the facilities more than met expectation.

From my perspective a slight lack of rest and the big camera being abit mardy put a slight dampeners on things. However the weather was sublime and as usual the teams and marshals made the event.

Enquiries for this months NSPL collection should be directed to whatstheskinny @hl-concepts.co.uk

Many thanks to all the teams for a great 2009 season!

Photography by P R Bourne

Damn cold with a biting east wind to boot. Crap light cold batteries and slow autofocus, even with IS on, ISO turned up to 11 and wide open, the shutter speed was slower than I would have liked. The majority of the sketchy, blurry and plain out of focus ones have been ditched, still they are a bit grainy and needed some help. Only the warm welcome and Jon's hot grill and drinks made up for it, think I was suffering from frost stroke at some point during the day.

Photography by P R Bourne.

The rain and the wind died down, the winter sun shone mainly on the righteous. Three 15 minute first to five games followed and the old geezers gave the insolent young pups a good kicking. Conspiracy theorists are already asking who was that mysterious shooter on the grassy knoll. All we know is that the Future is bright, the Future is orange, orange with the Old School's paint ;-)

Why does it say its 78 miles to get to the Freekz site, but when you get there your Odometer says youve gone 95 miles? There must be a rip in the space time doobrey. Anyway I've gone off on one of those tangents. Oh yes, Kitch I've finally gone the joke about the tents and the nukes... only took 2 days. OK, I'm done but with Kitch booking the fine weather and Angry Jon selling the burgers, we were set for another quality event down at the Freekz site.

The atmosphere amongst the british teams was amazing... and long may it continue.

If you are interested in purchasing a photo or three, drop me an email or PM and I'll sort you out. I'm more skint than Neil!

Sun, sand, sea, surf and paintball.

As the temperature soared the action on field hotted up for the first round of the Millennium series 2008. The beach front location at Fuengirola, right in the heart of the Costa del Sol was fabulous, as was the atmoshere with the majority of players staying in hotels and appartments within walking distance. Unfortunately, the demons of digital photography consipred to flood my sensor with dirt at the first lens change of the weekend and, of course, I hadn't packed any cleaning equipment, so orders will be examined at 100% for dust and shadows and refinished accordingly, along with the contrast, balance, levels and sharpness tweaked where needed.

Plenty of UK teams covered, if I missed you, sorry, you were probably on the wrong field at the wrong time or I was off searching for more water. Peter.

Sun 23rd Mar 2008: Freaky Five Man Summer Series Round 1 - 23/03/2008
Coverage by P R Bourne.

Easter Sunday, first of the Freekz Summer 5-Man Series. Well, not quite summer, with a cold start, snow flakes, sunny spells, hail storm, more sunny spells. Four seasons in one day? Well, at least three, though that didn't put a dampener on the action or the atmosphere - at least we missed the real snow and the tornado. Your intrepid horse rescuer was there to take all the weather (and the players) could throw at him.

Over the days ahead of the tournament the gods of wind and rain had jousted across the skies above. As scores of valiant warriors gathered at UCZ, the gods of paintball were awakened, the skies calmed and the precipitation receded. The mud we are used to, but no rain? Was this really an NSPL event?

Round 10 of 10 of the NSPL. D7s brings to a close the 2007 NSPL season. Its been a long and tiring season for me and my associates - thanks for all those to supported us this year!

Start: Bless the high humidity, sun, with occasional showers, Pete trekked over to Live the America dream - whilst in Britain, people awoke to an extra hours sleep and for those lucky few, a day of paintball in the blazing autumn sunshine.

I appear to have gone a bit OTT with the funny angley stuff... still makes for easier rotating of photos...
Stop: Hammer time.

Sun 7th Oct 2007: Time Wars Scenario, Campaign Paintball - 07/10/2007
Welcome to the coverage of Timewars, which was held at Campaign Paintball.

Thanks to everyone who was involved in setting up the scenario. It was clear to see lots of effort went into the props, planning, marshalling and missions. And lastly it wouldn't of been the event it was without the players.

Light on the day was a tricky, so what we've done is left a load of "fog of war"* photos in as we recognise that even though you might not be in focus, you would still like to see yourself on the 'net.


Sun 23rd Sep 2007: D7s Pump & Training Day
Loads of photos of your heroes. But none of the little Japanese dude Hiro Nakamura.

Sun 19th Aug 2007: RK1 NSPL Round 7 - Reading 19/08/2007
Photography by Ray Ko.

On going problems with the camera meant covering what I could and not really keeping an eye on the under/over exposures.

Orders for photos will as always be hand finished to try and even out the image before final delivery.

Cheers

Photography by M Stace, associate photographer.

The day started wet back eventually dried out. The wet fields made for some aggressive slides and killer moves.

Photography by the P R Bourne, associate photographer.

With the Campaign Cup out of the way, the UK domestic season continues with Round 4 of the Proto KoTH. If you are in the south or dont mind the trek, Proto KoTH provides the ideal way of easing your team onto the tournament scene.

Arriving on site, visitors were immediately greeted by a 8ftx3ft banner advertising the event. It was clear from the drive to the car parking that alot of effort had gone into the venue. Walking through the 'vendors lane' was awesome with plenty of shiny stuff for sale.

American invader Sun 4th Feb 2007: D7's X-Ball Lite 04-02-2007

Sun 1st Oct 2006: D7s X-Ball Lite 01-10-2006
D7s does X-Ball Lite. Here are the photos. The early morning closure of one of the roads which leads to the site meant everyone had a unscheduled sightseeing tour of Dartford.

However once again Dave, Kathy, Mark, and team gave players the perfect playing environment to play the future of paintball today.
 
Meeting the INSANE :D Sun 24th Sep 2006: Kind of the NSPL Leg 8, Reading 24-09-2006
With the Campaign Cup now in the past, teams from around the south converged in on Reading for Leg 8 of the NSPL.

Teams arriving on site were met by yet another quality setup which should be credited to the tireless work by Syd, Mel, and the setup crew.

The weather for those who arrived initially was not brilliant but luckily for everyone Colsey brought the sunshine with him for all to share.

Sat 22nd Jul 2006: Not really NSPL Leg 7, Bournemouth 22-07-2006
Thats your lot! All half decent photos have been uploaded. *If anyones asking, I was not down covering the event, so I've probably missed some teams*

Weather conditions during the day we're fantastic, then it rained - but we won't into that in too much detail. Got a nice case of trench foot though.

Photos are available for purchase at very reasonable rates. Enquiries can be made to: whatstheskinny[at_symbol]hl-concepts.co.uk

Action shot! Sun 18th Jun 2006: Not really NSPL Leg 6, Reading 18-06-2006
First of all, I was not covering this event. I went down to spectate and got a bit bored in the afternoon and decided to get some practice photography in - this gallery does not constitute coverage of the event (but you are welcome to enquiry about purchasing them ;) ). There were two media people at the site on this day.

... and thats your lot.

Mon 12th Jun 2006: D7's X-Ball Lite
D7s does X-Ball Lite. Here are the photos. I would really love some feedback on the photos. I have padded out the gallery with some experimental shots and out of focus shots.
 
Sun 21st May 2006: NSPL Leg 5, Ashford 21-05-2006
Heres comes the commentary...

First of all - I need feedback on the photos! Drop me a line, use the "Leave a Message" link on the left, maybe use the Comments button near the bottom of the pages?

There was bad light and rain during pretty much the entire day, making photography tricky and unpleasant. Even the camera didn't like it much (it's not waterproof - theres a hint).

The issue with soft focusing @ Reading was sorted, but due to the conditions I was still getting mostly 1/125 hand held shots @ around 400mm/F5-F5.6. Luckily the lens has IS, the last shot of day (Twisty from Quac.. Quake) is 1/80 handheld at 109mm and its in focus. Yay!

I've included some of the slightly less in focus shots to fill out the gallery a bit.
Sun 7th May 2006: D7s Practice days Pt2
Various photos. Now with added Millenium field gives UK players a taste of European paintball right on your Dartford doorstep. I forgot to bring the "dollar" lens so used my walk around lens and have done some photoshopping to crop some of the photos.

Basic vs Maidenhead Trauma Sun 12th Mar 2006: NSPL Leg 1, Ashford 12-03-2006
All photos now uploaded. On a cold, wet, and sunny day in March paintballers from around the south met up to play the first leg of the NSPL. Many war stories can be told. These are the photos.

Constructive comments and feedback is welcome.
 
Sat 25th Feb 2006: D7s Rookie Tourney 25/02/2006
Sun 5th Feb 2006 to Sun 26th Feb 2006: D7's practice days
Various photos.

Located just abit down the road from its previous location, Dave Stewart and his team of helpers have worked hard to complete the move of the D7's site in just over 3 months.

The site comprises of three full fields, a drill area, hot food, flushing toilets, finished off with a X-Ball style tower as the centre piece.

Any team or walk-ons can are welcome use the facilities (but please phone to check availability).

On these particular days the site hosted a number of high profile UK teams.

XSV vs ? Sun 11th Sep 2005: Campaign Cup 2005 (Sunday Club)
Day 3. Campaign Cup held at the Birmingham NEC. Weather was overcast and occassionally drizzly. Not allowed onto any fields today so shot through the netting, stand police limited what I could do, but less so on field 2. Major amounts of post production have been carried out on the 'game' pictures, hence abit "bloomed". Once again, constructive comments and feedback welcome.
Basic vs. ? Sat 10th Sep 2005: Campaign Cup 2005 (Day 2)
Day 2. Campaign Cup held at the Birmingham NEC. Weather was very wet. Goggle fan fixed, but rain meant shooting blind - kept going until the lens got condensation. Look carefully as there are some really good 'playing in the rain' shots. Once again, constructive comments and feedback welcome.
 
Fri 9th Sep 2005: Campaign Cup 2005 (Day 1)
Day 1. Campaign Cup held at the Birmingham NEC. Weather was overcast but very humid. Goggle fan failure meant shooting blind. As I wasnt allowed on fields 1 and 2, any shots of these were taken from outside. Many thanks to the teams that took time to speak to me on the Chronic field. Once again, constructive comments and feedback welcome.
Sun 4th Sep 2005: Misc Training 04/09/2005
I'll PP these pics when I have the time...
 
Sun 28th Aug 2005: Dartford 7's Pre-CC 28-08-2005
I didnt get a running order as this was a "practice" tourney. Should be pics of all the teams. Some pics here have been cropped and/or adjusted. Batteries just about held out until the game where I took a shot on the lens.
Marshals Sun 31st Jul 2005: Dartford 7's 31-07-2005
At this tournament I took an opportunity to get used to the camera and experiment with lens and shutter speeds. Light once again was a problem. Once again, constructive comments and feedback welcome.
 
Marshal Sat 23rd Jul 2005: Heavens Gate 3 (NSPL SE L3/ SW L5)
Pictures now up. Righty, I had difficulty covering all the teams who were playing the NSPL side of things, but I tried. Yet again had a problem with the camera, which equalled lost shots and tried to catch up on some games. Problems with weather (and sleep) on Sunday meant that I called it a day. Once again I would appreiate constructive feedback.
Cardiff XM7 vs Basic Sun 26th Jun 2005: NSPL SE 26-06-2005
Due to some teething problems with the camera and lens, a number of pictures came out under exposed - I have corrected the images where this has occurred.
 
London Tigers YG's vs. Backlash Sun 22nd May 2005: Dartford 7's 22-05-2005
Focusing on "action" shots this time, hence less "game" following shots.

Sorting through the pictures at the moment... pretty much done now.
Marshals Sun 8th May 2005: NSPL SE 08-05-2005
Some of the pics are experimental and are on the arty side. Some pics work better than others. I would like to call them "Paintball Distilled Imagery" - you might call them "Alittle bit blurry mate".

 
Amalgamation vs. Basic Sun 24th Apr 2005: Dartford 7's 24-04-2005
Apart from being really tired, and seemingly busy all day I managed to get some shots done. I got kippered midday so the plan to cover more games in the afternoon went out the window.

Shiny Sun 27th Mar 2005: Dartford 7's 27-03-2005
Lighting again abit of a problem, but learn from the last time so pictures came out better. Other than that - ramble, ramble, ramble.
 
Sun 20th Feb 2005: Dartford 7's 20-02-2005
A cold day in February didnt stop teams attending the D7's. Problems with lighting and a new lens meant that alot of the photos lack punch.

Sun 22nd Aug 2004: Dartford 7's 22-08-2004
Not too many pictures taken infield this time around, but had a play about with a fisheye adapter.
Heaven 2 vs. Sun 1st Aug 2004: Dartford 7's 01-08-2004
First time out with the 300D, and looks like I forgot to change the white balance and had difficulty using the viewfinder with the JT goggles... you live and learn.
 
Sun 18th Jul 2004: Dartford 7's - Practice Pics
Various pictures taken of Heaven 1 and 2, and various walk ons experiencing another relaxing day at Pull! Paintball Park.
