Shooting the basketball and a photograph

Basketball, night

Last night when I was down playing a little basketball with my son, I tried taking a pic. I shot the basketball with one hand and shot this photograph with my phone in the other hand. For the photograph, but missed the basket. The ball hit the rim, circled around once and popped out much to my dismay!

My husband liked to play basketball when he was younger.

@LadyDuck I'm not tall either. It's still fun to play!

I used to play a bit in college but now only play when my son goes down to play.

I used to play basketball when I was in school. Good to know that you play it with your son.

I can barely shoot and dribble these days. I wish I could find someone to coach him.

Maybe you need a different technique. Like placing the phone on the ground and set the timer.

Or next time, I'll just get my son to shoot the photo. I felt too lazy to ask him

The court seems to be well lighted when no players are seen around.

We switched on the floodlights when we play and switch it off after that.

@pitstop I thought it is a public place or is it personal?

I do a max of 15 minutes outdoors these days. There are colleagues who do an hour of jogging or cycling every single day!!
