Apparently this rivalry has moved on and the weight it used to carry has now shifted to their new found nemesis in Újpest.
Half full stadiums and a “heart to sky” salute. Very Roman of them.

On a damp Saturday afternoon, we experienced what we haven’t experienced all season long.

But for us, this isn’t the end. This is merely the beginning. Undefeated? Whatever. We have proven time and time again that a bump on the road will NOT derail our quest for the crown

How the sausage is made. 😂
#sportsphotography I need to praise my colleague for getting that shot.

And you have to zig when others zag. #bayerleverkusen claimed their first ever #bundesliga title and I didn’t stay on the ground for long. I wanted to get an image to show the chaos on the pitch. So I decided to go up some stairs and get this shot. Dare to be different. #sportsphotography.

But this on the other hand, will have lovers and haters. But it’s something different and that is what you should aim for. What you don’t want is to settle for mediocrity. Get the shots that will be controversial.

I took this during #euro2024. This I can shoot with my eyes closed and two hands behind my back. And so could you. It’s a run of the mill action shot. The only significance of it is that these people are professional athletes in a professional match. It’s a forgettable photo.

Don’t settle for mundane #sportsphotography. Change it up as often as you want. Rules are there to be broken and ripped apart into pieces.

The only time you can get close to pro athletes are either a) pregame and b) you’ve got official access.

For comparison, here is the recent shoot between #dinamobucuresti and @fcsteaua.bsky.social
You can clearly see that everything is far far far.

Shooting amateur sports is hell of a lot more fun than shooting pros. Why? Because of access.
