Last on the card – August 2022

August was not a great month for photographs. I had an issue with my left foot – probably brought on by too much driving of the old Mack truck in American Truck Simulator! My usual excuse for going out, trainspotting – was disrupted by industrial action. The upshot is that last month, only the Canon 5D mkIII saw any use and as a result there is only one photo for Brian’s Last on the card challenge 😦

Of course, if there’s one thing I was always going to photo it was the football. The last shot for August was taken on the 29th when Wingate & Finchley visited Haringey Borough…

…This is just about the last kick of the game. A Haringey defender, hidden by our 5 and 11, clears an intercepted pass and at that point the Ref blew the final whistle. It was a scrappy game ending 0-0. We did actually get the ball in the net but the assistant ruled it off-side. All I can say looking back at the photos is that it must have been very tight. I think Freddie may have been robbed of a perfectly good goal and Wingate & Finchley of 2 points! – Ho humm…
