What a fantastic day at Worcester. The first domestic silverware brought home to FG in over 10 years - and a terrific set of memories from our band of photographers
SMURF
Well, what a spectacular day out!
Two great sets of fans, two teams at the top of their games, and some
great conditions...as well as one superb result!
Here's the photos I took - I make no apologies for there being loads of the trophy presentation...

...and some favourites - celebrating Downey's try:
Courtney in an armchair catching the restart:
Tiny's fantastic run - on into the 22:
What more do I need to say?
Dowson holds the trophy aloft as Scotty Gray shows off his champagne spraying:
Captain fantastic and some of his motley crew:
Pride in the shirt? Too right:

Thanks Hana 
I would guess Claire's will be spectacular as always - caught her in a few shots, especially on the pitch afterwards.

superb photos Smurf - they must
be the photos of the season (so far). Good to see whole squad
celebrating.

Smurf - your best this season and
you will have the best shot of Tiny dashing down the pitch. Great
action shots from a tough vantage point.
I really do need to get to work now

Not going to write much now as I have to go to work... First batch of photos are 'ere.... The rest will be up later. The match was brilliant to shoot, the lads were fantastic and the new lens great.
My favourites...
There will be some wallpapers available later

A great day out, apart from the parking!
Here's my selection:
Myler on his break - I've got a good long sequence leading up to Tiny's try.
Tiny - next stop, the other end of the pitch!
Best celebrating
A happy looking Mrs Jones!
I promised these two I'd post this - contact me for a copy
The full set can be found on my website
Also, I only posted my pics of the semi-final on Saturday, so many of you might have missed them - see the photo thread

Love the big cheesy grin on Brian's face; so good to see after his early season body language.
Is he the next Tiny?

Guys, seriously, I have the facility to plot any of these photos up to A0 size, in colour. I can only laminate up to A3 size but were you to decide to give Tiny a leaving gift photo, I would be very happy to print/plot such photo.
I think it would be a good idea and a leaving pressy from COYS would be nice.

Great sets, Smurf & Claire 
Doing my set now - so many photos! Found this while I was doing them... it looks like Digger enjoyed his 100th match!

Claire,
It would be much appreciated if you could indeed do some wallpapers. I still use your ECC cup winning celebration shot as my desktop wallpaper.
Any chance you could do widescreen varieties please?
Many many thanks.

Beat me to it St Kenneth. I to use the ECC wallpaper from last year on my Home and work pc. It would be much appreciated if this was possible again Claire?
Look below chaps and you will find a wallpaper thread.
Saint_aitch - do you really mean A0 - that's twice the size of a flipchart? I can produce an A3 easily - I imagine A2 would work too.

Has been a while since I have troubled the board with photos.
I know there is a photo link at the top which is a sticky,perhaps one of the editors will be able to add it to that, or should I have just added straight there it looks to all be part of a story though?
Here is the link.

Chris, you should post more of your pictures - your pictures go beyond the usual 'action' shots and have a 'human' element associated with them... enjoyed looking at these, thanks for posting them.
Excellent stuff Mr Hoddle - as others have said you have an eye for things that I know I will not see so please do share your work more often.
I do fear for your camera if you will photograph me - I look as though I am about to go mountaineering with that lot! The big lens looks good though!

Morning everybody,
At last I've got a chance to put up a proper post about Sunday. Firstly I'd like to say thanks to Ben Mottram and his team at Worcester for hosting us media types so well.
Needless to say I had a great time on Sunday - the big lens is going to take some getting used to but I got some half reasonable shots with it and with practice I will get better. The sunshine was great and I can't remember when I shot at ISO200 and achieved speeds of 1/5000th of a second!
Highlights for me were shooting Digger leading out the team for his 100th appearance; capturing Tiny's dash down the pitch which clearly shows him out sprinting Simpson-Daniel and again being allowed on the pitch for the celebration shots.
Below are some of my favourites with the big lens...
I've added more photos to the gallery 'ere...
See you on Saturday for the Wasps match
