Photographs on
Indoor Cricket World
All
the photos taken by Indoor Cricket World over the World Cup are now
available on CD. Each CD will feature a particular country and team.
The CDs will allow any or all of the photos to be printed directly from
your computer, or through a regular Photo Processing store. They can
be cropped and manipulated in exactly the same way as can prints taken
directly from film-negative.
These CDs are now available for purchase at a cost of AU$40 each. Full
purchase details HERE
The thumbnails displayed on these pages are small images showing the
photographs I took during the event. The photographs on the CDs will
be full size, suitable for high-quality printing.
Indoor
Cricket World specialises in Internet coverage of major indoor
cricket tournaments. In 2000 we provided up-to-the-minute
coverage of the World Cup in South Africa, via mobile-phone
contact from associates on site in South Africa. They'd phone
the results through, and we'd have them published within minutes
on Indoor Cricket World. It wasn't ideal, but it meant the
scores were available to the world within minutes of each
game's completion.
Then the World Masters was held in Perth, Western Australia,
our home town. |

Indoor
Cricket World provided up-to-the-minute scores and eye-witness
match reports directly from that tournament, and also published
an extensive collection of photographs taken during the competition.
It was our coverage of the International Masters that attracted
the attention of the organisers of the 2002 World Cup, and
an invitation was extended for us to travel to Wellington,
New Zealand, to provide the official, on-the-spot internet
coverage. The invitation was accepted, and here we are. |

For
the technically minded, the photographs on these pages were
not taken using a digital camera. I use a Nikon FE2
SLR, with either a 28mm wide-angle or a Nikon 35-110mm zoom.
The film is processed at a public processor, but instead of
prints I have the photos burned onto CDs in high-resolution
tiff format.
The photos are then loaded from the CD onto my laptop, converted
into reasonably low-compression jpegs (compression factor
of 20), resized, and then incorporated into the pages of Indoor
Cricket World. It's a tad slower process, but the results
are significantly better than a digital camera. |
