As a former sports editor and a magazine editor in love with great photography, I’ve been really impressed this past week with the work Alex Masters has been doing, shooting the Island Games in Aland for The Royal Gazette and the Bermuda Sun. His shots have been far above the normal run-of-the-mill sports action shots – not bad at all for someone who by his own admission, “as far as sports are concerned, I don’t think I could be any less experienced,” and is far more at home shooting weddings, fashion shoots and concerts.  You can see more on Flickr or on Alex’s photoblog.
