2010 New England Pond Hockey Classic

Here are a few of my favorites from a pond hockey tournament on Lake Winnipesaukee in Meredith that I shot a couple of weeks ago. More than 75 teams in 5 divisions competed in a weekend long round robin 4-on-4 tournament. For more, here's a link to a photo gallery from the event.

Action!

Spectators!

Broken chair!

Sense of place!

I shot that last one from a helicopter. Mad props (ha!) to Ace Helicopter LLC out of Hampstead, NH, for taking me and another photographer up to shoot aerials of the event. They even took the doors off of the chopper so we could get clearer shots.
