this was my fourth year taking pictures from the side of the 17th green at edgewood. as always, i’ll put up a large gallery over on aboutlaketahoe.com/events/celebrity-golf.htm. but there are some that i like more from a photography standpoint than just to provide content about the tournament. i’ll put those up here. most of this stuff is nowhere near the level of the pros with thousands of dollars in glass and all access, but that’s why this is photography for (and from) dummies. all the shots here were taken with the
EOS Rebel T2i. the vast majority were with the sigma 50-200 f/4-5.6 dc os.

quite the group on the tee
charles charge gives it up for some auburn fans

tony romo – what’s impressive here is that this was happening before putting on what everyone knew was likely gonna be the deciding hole of the tournament
