Carrying on from my portraits with the theme of football and football fans, I got in touch with a massive Leicester City fan and also an author who's book sold a lot of copies. We had started outside of the King Power Stadium and then David took me to the old ground, which is now a car park, grass and a stand is now a student accommodation. Then finally went across from the stadium to the river. Where you see a beautiful view of the football stadium which gave me ideas for some portrait shots. I loved the green logo of Leicester, which was lit in honour of the Brazilian team following the horrible tragedy. This is one of my favourite portraits and will always be one of my favourites.

For my portrait project for university, I decided to have a theme of football/football fans. Luckily, I managed to get a ticket to a Leicester City game and this allowed me to capture some candid portraits of my friends watching the players warm up. I think the camera angle works well, it captures their facial expressions perfectly and the audience gets an idea of what I am trying to achieve here. This is one of my favourite shots but have got a few more which I will be posting in a couple of days time. I have always been interested in sports photography and hopefully while studying photography at De Montfort University, I will be able to get into the industry more and start capturing some awesome sports photographs...
