Reminds me of ballet!

Today I attended my second rugby match. This was much more exciting than the first with lots of fast action. The light was poor which meant I had to push the ISO high in order to keep the shutter speed fast to stop the movement.

It was hard to choose an image, but I like the hand gestures in this one, and the way that bulky blokes are lifted very high off the ground to catch the ball in the line-out. It's a Tynedale player who caught this one, but sadly they were convincingly beaten by Blackheath.

Little Hedgehog is now only 233g but did eat left over cooked chicken this evening. I see a special diet looming! We are becoming too attached to him/her.
