Mayeb he feel stress after saw LCW won the first set he he... you can see from his expression ..cheers
Great photos, Mini Me. By the way, who's the one in black doing the jump smash in the fourth picture, between the ones of Bao Chunlai and Lee Chong Wei? (posting #57)
Yes, Lee Jae Jin is a very exciting player. It's too bad we couldn't have seen more of him in the men's doubles in this tournament. I really thought he and Jung Jae Sung would take over this year especially after I saw them dispense with Kim/Ha and Luluk/Alven in consecutive months but they just won one tournament and then in KL they were beaten in the first round by a singles player! Oh well, hopefully they'll do better in LA.
that's chen qi qiu, chinese mixed doubles player. he was warming up with zhao ting ting when he did that jump smash. sunzhi, i used nikon d70 with 50/1.4, 85/1.8, 28-75/2.8 and 70-200/2.8 for my pics. the pics have been cropped and downsized to fit the 800x800 size restriction.
very interesting there, in your last photo, (dunno who that is out of Tan/Ong) but he is using an Amortec 700 for doubles... interesting.. And not to mention the chinese player using an NS8K
Hahaha. I see... He looks cute even so though... Now, for the real comment, excellent photos, brandonwong!!! So lucky you can get so near the players. I wonder if you have any more photos of Fu Haifeng?
here are some more pics from the semi finals, again in no particular order. either tomorrow or saturday i will try to finish processing the pics from the finals.
here are the first batch of pics from the finals. i haven't finished processing yet, only about 25% done so far.
here are my other pics from the finals. there's lots of huang sui coz i think she's hot hopefully in future tournaments we'll see lots more of zhu lin coz she's even prettier in person than in my pics i have uploaded the pics that i think are my best. if anyone is interested in any other pics then put in a request here and i'll see if i have the specific pic.
i didn't see taufik play so i don't have any of his pics. he didn't seem to hang around to support his team mates in the doubles so i couldn't get any photos of him in the crowd eithe.
My picture! Geez, this is my picture. I took it and sent it to Chinese news agencies. It doesn't take long before you see it everywhere on the Net.
