Outdoor court volleyball images are a common photographic subject among amateur and professional photographers alike.
For some reason that I haven't figured out yet there's a special place in the camera arts for outdoor court volleyball images.
The shot of a single net standing alone somewhere on a lonely beach, or a cityscape or picnic area with a scenic background is a common theme among amateur and professional photographers alike.
As a former pro photographer myself, photographing the players was my favorite pastime.
I had easy access to the top players and coaches in the world since I was playing with them, or against them, or for them at the time, while I was in Italy.

So I took the opportunity to document those moments on film.
I took portraits and pictures of players that I was on the team with and with the consent of the subjects I would show them to the reporters who would come to the games to interview me.
But as a former professional volleyball player and despite being drawn to human subjects I loved studying and viewing gorgeous stills and landscapes with the outdoor court as the main subject.
Whenever players participate in a tournament, there's the chance that they walk away with a couple of photos of the beach player with their hand behind their back showing the usual beach hand signals.
Being one of those subject's that every person with a camera takes a picture of once in awhile there's an image or two that really stands out from the thousands that have been taken.
Apart from being one of those great pictures of people playing volleyball this image evokes a feeling that most tournament players have felt of late day competition when the courts are full, people are competing or cheering those on who are, while the sun continues to creep pass the midday point signaling the start of ...the playoff rounds...
Volleyball nets and poles are a great photographic subject in all types of weather.
Whether underneath cloudy skies, or just at the right time when summer leaves turn into fall leaves or even in the dead of a winter during a snow storm, somehow the outdoor court is a subject that photographers always include in their photo archives.

Many of these volleyball practice drills you can do at home by yourself or try at your next practice with your teammates.
If you're a B team or JV player trying to make varsity next year...your goal should be to complete 1000 reps a day of at least three of the basic skills on your own...volleyball passing, serving and setting should be at the top of the list.
