AZB gallary, where did it go?

[asbani]

I remember back in the days there was a Gallary section for azbilliards.com - it was one of my favorites just as the forums section is.

The special thing about it is, with every event that happens, specially the big ones, there will be pictures uploaded day by day to that section with the event name/date and a funny comment that goes with the image, good quality high resolution pictures.

Maybe there was a photographer employee that got paid by azbilliards to go to these events and take pictures of games or fans or players or just random people/audience, and now he stopped working for azb? Maybe? I'm just guessing. but it was a good idea.

I really liked that section and I am sad that I can't find it. For example now I am trying to find out a gallary of pictures for the mosconi cup 2015, back in the days I would find it with day1, day2, day3 pictures, and day4 would be uploaded tomorrow, but now I can't find any, and all I can find is a facebook page of the event with few pictures, but really what was nice about it, is the azb gallary took pictures of fans and viewers and everything out of the pool room, not just the games and players.

Good post, asbani.
I don't quite remember the "dedicated" gallery section you speak of.

Indeed, it would be nice if the billiard industry had a de facto photographer who went around
and took pictures of the various events.

Times are tough though as we know.
For now, I think the pool shutterbugs are relegated to their respective regions.

The Diamond Tour in AZ is one "micro-tour" that usually features photographs from every event.
