Our party was just a part of the group (I'd say about two thirds), the rest were other regular players. In this lot of photos I concentrated on our lot, there will be a few more of the others, especially as the organisers have asked for copies of the photos, too.
They ran a variety of games throughout the day with the last being a special "Stag Run" for

On to the photos, I'm surprised that I got as many photos out of it as I did, considering the poor light and not having done this sort of action photography before. There's some dodgy focus, obviously and interesting framing isn't that easy, either but I had to do a lot less cropping than I thought I would.
So here's a selection of the best, the full set is on flickr.

The Stag Guard getting ready

Off they run


Duck and cover!

Almost made it

Group photo at the end
Nikon D70, Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 APO, Sigma 2x tele converter, last bits with kit lens; ISO with the Sigma combo was between 1000 and 1600 because it was a really dark day and I wanted to get reasonable exposure times and compensate for camera shake, too (a VR lens would have been fantastic), ISO 400 with the kit lens. Not ideal but it worked OK, I think.
