7/31 AM Camp pictures - The Orange Mane

Breck Bronc · 07-31-2006, 10:14 AM

There's definitely a fine balance between watching what's going on at camp, seeing who is doing well or poor, and taking a few decent pictures.

SoCal, sorry I didn't meet up with you. I didn't have time to contact you before I left for Dove Valley. Wednesday will be the next time I go to camp and I'll certainly meet up with you then.

Jay Cutler throwing to his right

Cutler handing off to Cobbs

Javon Walker to the left of Jake Plummer

Javon makes another catch (I heard a lot of "Ashley who?" today)

A tired Javon Walker

Finally, does anyone know who #9 is and why he was out there kicking with the entire team watching? The team seemed to be having a good time watching him miss.

Inkana7 · 07-31-2006, 10:16 AM

Isn't #9 Preston Parsons? I'm not sure, but I think that's who it is.

Good pictures, thanks!

EDIT: Just checked the roster, Parsons is #5. I dont know who #9 is.

bronco militia · 07-31-2006, 10:18 AM

awesome pics

BroncoBen · 07-31-2006, 10:30 AM

Those are fantastic pictures.. thank you.

g00fyfoot · 07-31-2006, 10:33 AM

Yes, very nice. Thanks. Javo could make us forget about Ashley pretty quickly.

plummershelper · 07-31-2006, 10:37 AM

#9 is me. I'm a sports writer trying to do a remake of Paper Lions. This will be called "Cardboard Broncos". I'm trying to make it as the Punter since my arm sucks

Maybe they brought in one of the Gramatica brothers to kick during Todd's suspension.

Thanks for the great pics Breck! I was in need of some new wallpaper.

Thanks for the great pics

Meck77 · 07-31-2006, 10:52 AM

Parsons is #5. Not sure who 9 is.

I'm not sure I believe these pics to be real though. JK...

We'll have the bus out there Wed Am. Maybe we'll see you around Breck.

Excellent pics!

RhymesayersDU · 07-31-2006, 11:05 AM

Wow, those are amazing pictures! I wish I could get mine to come out like that.

And you're absolutely right, trying to take photos and watching/analyzing plays are two very different things. On Friday I watched the PM session basically through the lense, and I couldnt tell you who did what, as I was targeting certain players (Jay Cutler mostly) for pictures.

rovolution · 07-31-2006, 11:12 AM

that #9 is an author by the name of Stefan Fatsis who is participating in the camp to gather material for his new book.

EXTRA, EXTRA: Wilson eagerly called the newest individual to don a Broncos practice jersey up in front of his teammates to do the pre-calisthenic breakdown at the start of Wednesday's session.

But that individual wasn't listed on the roster.

Following in a tradition of participatory journalism immortalized by the late George Plimpton, Wall Street Journal reporter Stefan Fatsis donned a blue No. 9 jersey and took part in Wednesday's practice as part of his research for a proposed book. Befitting his day job, he carried a pen and a notepad onto the field with him and quickly scratched a few notes onto it after leading the team in a series of claps and a few dance steps.

Fatsis' résumé includes two previous books. One is a tome about the Northern League called Wild and Outside : How a Renegade Minor League Revived the Spirit of Baseball in America's Heartland; the other is a glimpse at Scrabble entitled Word Freak: Heartbreak, Triumph, Genius, and Obsession in the World of Competitive Scrabble Players. He also contributes to National Public Radio in addition to his full-time Journal duties.

2KBack · 07-31-2006, 11:13 AM

those are great shots, it looks like you are right on the field.

As for #9, he looks a good 3 inches shorter than foxworth, and chicken legged, it can't be a real player.

Edit

ammit, the mystery was solved while I was posting

NOLA Bronco · 07-31-2006, 11:16 AM

I like the fact that Javon isn't wearing a knee brace.

Inkana7 · 07-31-2006, 11:16 AM

These pictures are great, but they're nothing without some sort of Camp observations, perhaps from one of our esteemed members at the Mane.

Hulamau · 07-31-2006, 11:16 AM

Those are great shots BB, what kind of camera rig did you use? Zoom lens shutter speed etc?

Yeah, I'd be interested as well. I'm borrowing my girlfriend's digi cam, but if I ca adjust settings to get mine to come out like those, that'd be sweet.

FYI amateur oranemane photographers...Buddy of mine just spent $1,000 on a kick ass camera to take camp pics was told he couldn't use it. He was told the lense was too big by guess who.

Anyhow just letting you guys know. If you have a nice camera you might want to bring your POS as back up.

bronco militia · 07-31-2006, 11:34 AM

a 4-5mega pixel slr type with at least 10x zoom should be perfect.

this is my camera....

http://www.steves-digicams.com/2004_...uji_s5100.html

Hulamau · 07-31-2006, 12:03 PM

Looks like a 350mm to 400mm zoom (10x to 12x ) unless he's standing near the sidelines.

BB can you please give us the EXIF data on a few of those shots?

F-stop
shutter speed.
ISO
zoom

make and model of camera and lens?

Many thanks
