Welcome to my ninety hi res pictures of Roger post! I took these during his quarter-final with Ivo Karlovic last Wednesday.

Click through for hi res


Yay, it's Roger!


Roger smoothing out the already smooth towel on his chair. That's the only reason I took this photo, to show that important moment.


He had his wristband in his pocket.


And a bulge in his shorts.






Are my feet working?


Is my hair okay?




The absurdly tall Ivo Karlovic. That's Mohamed Layani in the middle there.


The coin toss, ur doin it rong.


No, I'm not.


Whatev


The belt touch. He did this a lot. It goes: belt touch, hair touch, forehead wipe, little bounce.


I just wanted a better look, that's all.




Big arm, little arm.






This is a manly pose.


I like this. He could be doing anything here. Fending off a dog, or doing some really bad dancing, stamping on a spider. ETA: I know! He's vacuuming the lawn!


HAIR




Girly feet.


Bouncing on toes! He's so graceful all the time. It's very special to watch him.


Might've got a bit obsessed with feet at this point.




Little arm!


This is the only real leap I got, as I was worried about making noise with my camera during play.




"Where's my hairbrush?"


I didn't take all these photos just so I could stare at his crotch. What, you think I'm some kind of pervert?


Pretty hands...


The bag! The towels he sat on! The water he drank from! I didn't notice any water bottle placement obsession, he seemed to put it down anywhere.


There was often what looked like chaos going on behind him on change-overs. It wasn't calm and quiet, how it looks on TV. People run about and things happen.


I love the attractive way he wipes his nose. That's actually true.


At this point Roger found a lot of lint on his towel. OH NOES!


Emergency lint removal!






Prettiness...


Every time I look at this I can't help but see that racquet as a phallic symbol.




Water drinking face


I think this chap is measuring the net.


Daddy Federer. I felt a lot more stalkery taking pics of him than I did taking pics of Roger. Also I didn't take any pics of Princess Mirka for the same reason.










It's hard work being this pretty.
























Ball handling














Roger has actually just won at this point


Get the manbag on!


Mohamed Layani in the ump's chair - Rafa's favourite umpire. He liked to pronounce the scores like bingo calls: "Forty~~~~~fifteen!!"


More manbag action.


He's waiting for Dr Ivo to get his shit together and hurry up so they can leave the court.


...Waiting


Still waiting. Roger: 'Is this bitch even slower than Rafa?'




I would guess that 95% of the crowd were in love with Roger.


"Oh god, she's really going to post those shots of my crotch on the internet." Sorry, Roger. I feel awful.


Bye bye Rog, it was nice ogling you. It was at this point we began to feel sad. It's over, he's going!




The very last glimpse! Note the poor spurned Federbear.

I inserted them just for you!

Oh, Roger was just coming out on court this time last week. My god. Was it really only a week ago?

Oh my, he's gorgeous! Oh my, how close were you?

We were about 8 rows back from the front, added to that I came armed with my long lens.

I don't even actually get how Roger can be so pretty, but he just seems to look even more amazing in real life.

This is seriously awesome. Now I want to go more than ever. :D

Also, my favourite umpire too! ♥

Next year! :D

I want to write up our camping experiences because I think we learnt some quite useful things over the week.

Mohamed Layani was very sunny and cheerful, I can see why the players like him.

Lovely pics. And yes, there is something 'girly' about him (in the best possible way). Delicate, graceful. And I bet he doesn't pee on the bathroom floor or leave the loo seat up.

I'd like to think he was thinking of Rafa in the ball-handling pic - particularly given the one that follows. *g*

Heeee! You mean, followed by the hand pushed into the pocket? I concur!

There is something so graceful about him. I ended up watching him nearly exclusively as he ran about, sometimes hardly following the ball. He's just that mesmerising.

Looks like you were really close.
You got some gorgeous shots. So jealous. :P

STARING AT HIS WHAT? ME? SURELY NOT...
Thank you for those pictures *bows*

You're welcome!

We did get pretty close, about 8 rows from the front. We were wholly overexcited, as you can imagine.

OH!MY!GOD! THOSE are awesomeawesomeawesomeawesome pictures! I would have been hyperventilating from the sheer GUH!

I also thought that he really is a nice balance of being Manly manliness but has some really quite delicate postures and he does really have nice hands because of course I don't have ahand fetish at all no no I don't! My shots would have been all hands! har! He really *IS* lovely!

My face throughout most of the experience was basically :O

It was SO GOOD! Also, you are right. Roger's hands are love. They are so elegant and pretty.

Oh my gosh, you were so close! These photos are all fantastic! You got to see a match with Roger playing amazing and Mohammed umpiring? He's my favourite umpire, he looks like he should be sailing down the Med on a yacht with a drink in one hand. And goodness that Bulge can't be contained can it?

We were insanely close. It was hard not to climb over the wall onto the pitch and throw ourselves at him. Mohamed is hilarious! He's so smiley and happy, I really like his style on the court.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who finds his bouncing cute!

I'm completely biased, of course, but I think Roger has the nicest legs on the ATP tour. They're muscular but still slender (much like the rest of him), unlike some of the other guys whose legs look like they belong on rugby players. Or on forest floors.

[livejournal.com profile] buckle_berry developed a thing for Roger's legs, so we looked at them a lot. They are very nice ones indeed, and so solid and muscled. Guh.

you're photos are amazing! and you got sooo close!
the only time i get close like that is when he practices even then i have to fight off some girls so i wont lose my spot, roger fangirls can be so rabid ;p

and you got some great shots...i can never do that, my hands get either shakey or people just keep pushing to get a pic of him but who can blame them :)

my personal favourites are his legs shots, i agree that he's got the best legs on the men's tour and when he's sitting down...that bulge of his, is very eye catching...i shamely admit that sometimes i look at it for a bit too long...*shakes her head blushing*

Oh my it's lovely!!! *__* Reminds me of the 300 pics I took when I saw Roger at RG08 too. *chuckles* Thanks for this post.:)

No, I like spiders! I'm sure Roger isn't the sort of man who would stamp on spiders. He can't be.

I would guess that 95% of the crowd were in love with Roger.

Well, who wouldn't be? I fell in love with him in 2003, when he was the most graceful, athletic, stunning sportsman I'd seen in years. Plus a nice guy. How does anybody get to be that awesome?

These are the most beautiful non-pro/taken my a fan pics I have ever seen of him. Thank you for sharing them and thank you for being so obsessed with his crotch and legs. xD

Roger! His package! *flails*

Holy hell, Ivo is tall. It is surprising every single time.

Wow awesome pics. Thanks for posting them. You are so lucky being that close to Roger. I tried to get tickets for Wimby but didnt get any. I am going to the ATP tour finals tho and am praying I get to see Roger.

This post made me grin, as much from your comments as the pics themselves. Your shots are great!

HQ love. and Comments makes it more fun. Thank you..

And you got my favorite umpire too...

My like the last shot the best. Both with mix of light and moment it captured. With his head bent and people everywhere wanting something or another to be signed by him. If I have title it I would say "Fishbowl"...

Roger and Mohamed? Lucky, lucky person you are indeed. Is he really Rafa's favorite ump? I had hoped that he would be doing the final.

These are great pics. I think you focused on the feet and crotch just enough to emphasise how wonderful they are without straying into the "I'm totally obssessed" area. (Even though we all know...)

Obsessed? You? No. But, if you are, then so are we all. And, we're an appreciative bunch. Wonderful shots. I love the fending off a dog shot, too.
