So much stress just to capture a mug shot......

Photos of the first Round of the 2026 Rawlinson Cup at The Track between North AC v St Martins AC are now online.

This assignment was a little different to the norm as I was tasked with capturing a 'mug shot' of all the players in action.

At the start of a season Sports Editors like a few 'bankers' for use when a player is featured in reports.

I always find that as a photographer this is one of my hardest jobs! I end up taking more photos than my 'normal' coverage of a game (400 in this case) just to be sure I have a useable pic of (most) players - without any opposition players in the background!

This is too much stress for a man of my age but I'm now calming down after a bit of anger management therapy! This was the result from my capturing too many backs of heads, ugly grimaces, tongues out, head down, head up, eyes closed, opposition in the background..... I could go on!!!!

But I'm now calming down after a drop of anger management therapy (read beer)!

Here's a link to my 'no action' gallery of photos:
