Project 365 - Day 7 - They're BACK!

The inspiration for this shot came from the news that the NHL is back this year.  Although a lot of people thought that the season was over and done with, and many of those were not really upset at that, the NHLPA and Board of Governors came to a tentative agreement.

So I broke out the old Macro and took a shot of one of my favourite players.  Mark Messier is captured in fine form here taking a face off.  I love the expression on this guy.  This is one of my McFarlane figures, one of the old ones before he had permission to put the actual team logo on the jersey.

Here's the shot.

The white part behind him is actually a scale replica of the hockey boards.  The circles behind are lights in our front window.  F3.2 at 1/40 of a second to get the background lights.  ISO400, 60mm Macro lens.
