ABC WEDNESDAY - R IS FOR RAMSEY RUGBY





R then is for Ramsey Rugby. Well you knew I had to have Ramsey, but thought I'd add the twist and go for the double whammy R with the Rugby. Ramsey are the team pushing forward in the blue shirts. Fortunately I captured them in full flight en route to scoring much needed points. Unfortunately they were yet again the losing team. The camera never lies, so they say. It seems in the world of sport it can create the illusion, albeit for a fleeting moment, of a triumph, rather than disaster. Nevermind lads, always next season.

Good news for me, the cable has arrived and my laptop and I can renew our relationship. Wasn't quite the same using other peoples, although I am eternally grateful.

  3. I have a rugby photo too but not such a good in-action one as yours. Well done! You could have told us they won!

  4. How about 'rugged Ramsey rugby'? I love action shots like this. No rugby here in Belgrade either, just soccer as a similar sport, and of course now young kids are wild about tennis, thanks to Djokovic, Jankovic, Ivanovic, and Tipsarovic.

  5. Wonderful action shot. Rugby is not a popular sport here in Greece. in fact is a little bit unknown. good news for the cable

  9. R comme Rugby est une bonne idée. belle action que tu as bien rendu. Pas toujours facile les sports avec des mêlées pour bien faire ressortir un joueur, bravo

  11. I've never seen a Rugby game but my nephew in San Diego is on a team. I wonder if it's catching on here in the US now?
    Great photo!

  12. Great shot of the game. I remember learning Rugby in highschool gym class.. yes, they taught the girls as well. I am Canadian. I don't know if they still do that... that was quite a while back.
    Great post. And I'm pleased to hear you have rekindled the relationship between laptop and cable once more ... woohoo!

  17. This is a great action shot! We are just beginning to have Rugby here, and I sometimes watch them playing when I drive by their field/pitch(?).

  18. A great action shot. Rugby is played in Australia, but in my state Australian Rules Football is still the most supported football code.

  22. Rugby seems to be gaining in popularity in the Bay Area. "Louis" doubts that rugby or soccer ever will equal football, baseball and basketball in popularity aux États-Unis. Great action shot!

  25. Good you have your computer working again. I like your action rugby shot. Nice choice for R.

  26. As for me, I like the pretty colors of the matching outfits. What they do with balls and sticks is less important.

  27. Yep, a photo of a game can be deceiving, but the photo is a great action shot with many facial expressions and it is the truth for that moment. As you say - for Ramsey, there will be next year.

  28. Nice shot! I don't think rugby is big in Canada - most guys are more into hockey, which I hate. Oh well...come on over and see my R today. :D

  30. I like rugby too but I have never seen a game with the Montpellier team! Several World Cup games took place in Montpellier last year. Bonne chance to your favorite team!

    Thank you very much for visiting my blog!
