Pictures I shot of Giants Camp (August 2010)

Hey BBVers,

Just thought I would share some photos I snapped while watching a day at camp on the University at Albany campus in 2010. For you photogs out there, I was using a Canon XSI with a EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS II lens. If anyone would like high res versions of any of these shots let me know in the comments.

I'm sure the Timex Center is the preference for the players but it was always nice having the team come to my own backyard. I literally rode my mountain bike with a camera backpack to the field.

Hope you like them. If you do, hit me up with a "rec" so they can stay on top for a couple days. Thanks!

Kiwi would have absolutely pummeled Manning on this play.

Love this one. Pascoe hasn't even turned for the ball yet as the throw is already in the air.

Manningham catches one in stride.

Webster was chiding the offense all day.

Hey we know that guy. He would go on to have a pretty good preseason game against the Jets before being shut down that year.

Love Giants pics…

nywins42 needs a new screen name - "nywins46" sounds great!

Just ordered FatHeads for all available Giants. Now I have something to aim at when punching holes in my wall.

This is not the 2007 team.

nice pics...

you lucked out b/c when i went up there that summer they were using that other field and it was not too condusive to getting up close. they also were just doing a walk thru so practice was just a total bore.

But I got JPP to sign my football….and Tuck to steal my sharpie.

maybe tuck was low on cash and needed the sharpie to help make ends meet...ha ha

that’s awesome you got their sigs! yeah, I got lucky with a very active practice and a lot of the action coming toward me.

thanks for the recs guys

it’s a long week and happy to add some filler!

Lucky!

The training camp area they used before this season stank. Horrible views of people through the fence

Love the pics!

Especially the one with Osi looking like he is ready to take a bite out of the ball he’s holding. LOL

And Cruz looks like a pop warner league footbal player size-wise compared to all the other players on the field. Hard to believe that was a year ago. Didn’t know him before he came; now I don’t know what the Giants would do without him.

Eli better be glad that they were practicing because Kiw was about to lay some serious wood on that ass.

If you want to argue that Manning is a) not a great quarterback or b) not the best quarterback in franchise history your credibility is automatically shot.

Thanks Lo!

Yeah I was basically 20 feet from the sidelines getting some clear shots of the action. No doubt Manning would have looked like origami if that was a game. Thankfully Kiwi plays for the good guys!

I need to take a vacation to camp this upcoming year. I have never been to a training camp ever.

That is a Giant Step. Bring us some pics.

Nice treat for us edzilla. Rec'd

You got some really great shots there, hard to pick a favorite, but I like the one where Kiwi is about to…pull up, and the one where Eli is throwing to Pascoe

The truth. The REAL voice of reason

thanks tommy d.

those are two of my faves as well!
