My Cubs Photos

I've taken a bunch of Cubs (along with Rangers and WBC) photos over the last few years and finally got around to cataloging them all. Some are pretty good, some just so so. But I thought some of you would enjoy the trip down memory lane:

We are going to two games in Cleveland next month but that may be it for the Cubs this year other than the two Spring Training games we saw. My wife just started a new job and vacation days are slim.

Wow....
...it would a long time to browse them all, but the ones I did see were great. You have a knack for getting good, candid shots. Go pro.

Thanks!
Here is a URL to just look at Cubs photos:

5 star for a quickie look and 4/5 star if you have more time. The Houston photos are no so hot because I had a crappy camera then and Houston keeps their darn roof closed all the time.

This site is brand new so any feedback is welcome.

If you have a big monitor the large sized versions are nice. I just added a label to this pulldown and have been curious whether people will see/use this feature of the site. I made medium size the default but large is better on a 1280x1024 monitor.

Camera
Thanks kjk. I put some info about my equipment here:

Lenses are as or more important than camera. Stay away from those super zoom type lenses (50-500, for example). Images will be very soft.
