Shooting a hockey game is a great taste of what you’re in for if you want to be a photojournalist. The lighting is usually lousy. The subject is moving quickly and unpredictably. There are lots of people, lots of distractions and lots of clutter – all of which make it difficult to get a clean, sharp shot. But there is action. There is drama. There is emotion. And there is no time to waste. Photos have to be sent out for publication as soon as possible after the final buzzer. So you better get it right in the camera!
