Always a challenge in the dark at Badminton Centre....

Sport is usually fast moving in its play but of course there will always be exceptions. I've yet to struggle to keep up with a game of Chess.

One of the many Sports that make it a little more challenging is Badminton. Not only is the play fast with exceptionally fast rackets it seems that the Badminton Halls have to be painted in quite dark greens. At least they are this colour at the Guernsey Badminton Centre.

The lighting is also high in the roof and really not that bright!

It obviously must work perfectly for players but photographers are really up against the worst of combinations.

This all came back to me when I was asked to cover the Guernsey Basketball Association's Easter Open Tournament.

It was fun following the competitive play... but maybe not quite so great taking photos. But I captured what was requested and the photos are now in a gallery here:
