Tennis Anyone?

Nice composition and framing there. I think tennis as a sport is okay, but I prefer the console game versions of it.

I played in High School. At this point it's more fun to photograph the courts with a drone.

Maybe later. Nice shot.

Thank You.

Cool,   but I can only play one game at a time.

There used to be a day where there were never enough Tennis courts. Now they sit empty while kids play their video games.

Impressive shot.    Can't believe nobody was using them.  Shame because they look like really nice courts.  Down this direction you have to wait in line to get on a court most days.

People are starting to migrate to pickle ball

You're exactly right about pickle ball.  Seems all of a sudden that has become the game of choice for not only youngsters but seniors alike.  They even have several traveling pickle ball leagues here.  A close second now is frisbee golf.  Sporting goods stores carry a ton of different size, shapes and weights of frisbees to be used for frisbee golf.  I know of at least 2 parks that have both pickle ball courts and frisbee golf courses.  Of course, they are lit and stay open super late.

I can see the fun in filming with a drone, while I'm not completely into getting a full-spec drone at least yet, I have been considering getting a Tello. Not the best camera and not really suitable for windy days, but it's relatively cheap and I've heard it's a very beginner-friendly model. Also, If I have read right from our legislations, you don't need any special permits to fly one.

That or the mini 2 SE works great to get you started. If you like photography you will be amazed at the different perspectives you can get. Good luck.

I saw a YouTube short that was a Timelapse of a tennis game shot from above,   it was very effective.  

Nicely framed.  NE 1 4 10 is?

I think it's because the tennis playing population is getting to old to play tennis.

Is that a coordinate?

It's an interesting perspective.

Read it out aloud - it's a play on words
Anyone for tennis

I didn't figure that one out. Just got up.

Funny that I didn't see it.

An old pun dredged up from my memory by the title of your post

This 96 year old tennis player says we never die we just lose our advantage.

Don't you wish everyone felt that way?

Thanks for the well-wishes, I'll take some time to think about it and eventually decide what to pick.

Wouldn't that be wonderful.  I just hope to live that long.
