Love the sport too... probably too much :)

Great captures for sure! especially of the slides which I think are the toughest to shoot during an event

hahah. I find slides are easy... What i hate about it is that it usually the same players that go into snake (slide) so it gets repetitive.

Thanks though for the comments.

fair enough :D

I find the bunker battles the most repetitive with each person snapping out.

The slides like cause one small mistake and the person barrel rolls, or does something stupid, or dumps a hopper of paint

Great work man

Great shots! My fav is the faceplant! Although I also like the photo of the ball in mid flight! I too ventured into a paintball ring at "next" in pickering...found it a bit of a challenge at first with the mask on since I only have the D80(no live lcd). Got pelted several times but loved shooting it. Looking foward to my next adventure! :D

Ya i shoot the same way... Just through the view finder... i find it abit of a challenge... but now i just see the image in the viewfinder and then over zoom abit...
I don't use Live view (or LCD) since it would be awkward holding the camera like that.

I find you have to play the sport, so you know where the paint is going... so you don't get shot.
