Ball Park picture challenge

Peter · 06-26-2008, 12:21 AM

I am fortunate enough to live near a Major League Park, St. Pete, where the Rays play.
A few Years ago, while at a game, got into the upper deck behind home plate and took several pictures of the field, during the game. I use the picture for my in game ball park. I was careful about capturing from the backstop, down each foul line and into the outfield stands, It really turned out well. I up loaded the picture to a mod site and I imagine some of you may have it. (It's got an orangish band on one of the upper rings). I intend to do another one this year, and I am traveling to St. Louis for a work related symposium in August. Part of the deal is a Cardinal game, I intend to take several photos for use in the Cardinals ball park.
I am no genius with the camera, but mine turned out well.
I suggest anyone who plays this game and likes real ball park photos, go to a game, take some photos and we can ask someone (like Padresfan) to host them on his mod site.
It really was not much effort and I think it would add to the game. Day and night photos would be nice.
I can resend my Tropicana photo to a web site if asked as an example.
Just a thought.

Regards,
Pete

Great Idea. I am hoping to get down to KC in August when Boston comes into town. Hopefully your suggestion/request is well received.

Well, if nothing else, I'll trade photos with you.
