London Rollergirls Season Three - Bout One

Saturday was the first bout of the new London Rollergirl season and it was in a new venue (Earls Court). The set up of it was much like the 'Fistful Of Rollers' bout I shot earlier in the year.

Having shot three bouts over the last year I was pretty excited for the season to start again. There's a new team this time round which means that each event will have two bouts. It was also my friend Kati's first time competing for the Ultraviolent Femmes and I was pretty excited for her.

I had the same problems I had the last time which is I think my lenses aren't good enough to shoot. I have trouble getting close enough to do the kind of shots I would like to do and due to the lighting my colours aren't brilliant. I do like the photos though.

If you haven't been to a roller derby bout, please go and check it out. It's so much fun and pretty intense. I know this is their third season but it's been so well organised and despite people being on different teams it's really nice to see everyone chipping in to raise money, sell merch and generally help out.

Big Thank you to the London Rollergirls.
