Default first paintball photoshoot

hey everyone! yesterday i had my first photoshoot of a paintball event. as much as i love paintballing, i also love taking pictures of events, so i sacrificed a day of paintballing to take pictures for my buddies whilst they play. i mainly used my cheap-o Tamron 70-300mm telephoto to snap all the action, i didn't want to use my ef-s 17-55mm IS for obvious reasons ($1100 lens), but please let me know what you think of some of my shots, thanks in advance!!

sweet pics, I was at the mall the other day, and there was a local paintball shop on display, man he had some wicked equipment set up with him, paintball guns that resemble M4's etc. They've really come a long way since I played 10 yrs ago

looks like a blast
