Usually the weekends are pretty easy. A soccer game or two to cover a day. Anyway this Saturday was crazy as hell and is like nothing I’ve ever experienced before. The main reason for this madness is the paper has a soccer section in the paper because the season has just started. That meant I had to cover just about every team in the city! And not every team was playing at home. to make things nuts, I had an unrelated assignment during the mess and late at night. Here’s my Saturday as it went.12:09 PM - Avarta soccer club, opened a girls team for the first time in the club’s history.avarta-piger2_140407_BP.jpgCanon EOS-1D Mark II n, EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM @ 200mm, f/2.8, 1/2500sec, ISO100 (Photo: Brian Poulsen)1:50 PM - Game action + picture of head coach of the soccer team B77.ishoj-B77-2_140407_BP.jpgCanon EOS-1D Mark II n, EF 300mm f/2.8L IS USM + 1.4x TC @ 420mm, f/4, 1/1600sec, ISO100 (Photo: Brian Poulsen)2:27 PM - Local soccer star Hjalte Bo Norregaard who’s playing for the national championship team (far left) visits a reopening of a youth club that just restored their buildings.fest-milestedet1_140407_BP.jpgCanon EOS-1D Mark II n, EF 17-40mm f/4L USM @ 17mm, f/7.1, 1/800sec, ISO100 (Photo: Brian Poulsen)2:38 PM - A small horse riding competition which was part of the reopening of the youth club.fest-milestedet2_140407_BP.jpgCanon EOS-1D Mark II n, EF 17-40mm f/4L USM @ 17mm, f/4, 1/2500sec, ISO100 (Photo: Brian Poulsen)2:51 PM - Soccer action + picture of head coach of Team VEST.vest-stationsbyen1_140407_BP.jpgCanon EOS-1D Mark II n, EF 300mm f/2.8L IS USM + 1.4x TC @ 420mm, f/4, 1/1600sec, ISO100 (Photo: Brian Poulsen)4:08 - Soccer action + picture of Club President from the Avarta soccer club.albertslund-avarta3_140407_BP.jpgCanon EOS-1D Mark II n, EF 300mm f/2.8L IS USM + 1.4x TC @ 420mm, f/4, 1/1600sec, ISO100 (Photo: Brian Poulsen)4:54 - Soccer action + photo of the head coach of the soccer club Orient.orient-glostrup2_140407_BP.jpgCanon EOS-1D Mark II n, EF 300mm f/2.8L IS USM + 1.4x TC @ 420mm, f/4, 1/1600sec, ISO100 (Photo: Brian Poulsen)5:40 PM - Got home and edited photos for a couple of hours, having shot 800+ photos during the day.9:54 PM - A Small concert by ‘KNA connected’ at the youth club who held a party at night.fest-milestedet6_140407_BP.jpgCanon EOS-1D Mark II n, EF 17-40mm f/4L USM @ 40mm, f/4, 1/160sec, ISO1000 (Photo: Brian Poulsen)10:30 - Home around 10:30 PM, Edited photos from the concert and sent everything in to the paper.
