Haven't posted much action here lately. Been shooting a lot, but not sharing.

Here are a few shots from a night MLS game I worked over the weekend.

Thanks for looking. C&C welcome, as always.





In this shot it looks like Columbus Crew defender Chad Marshall (14) is 2 feet taller than Chicago Fire forward Chris Rolfe (17). I mean, he's kicking OVER his head, but his left leg is still on the ground. Reality: 8" taller







Columbus Crew goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum (30) makes a save on a shot from Chicago Fire forward Chris Rolfe (not pictured) during the second half at Toyota Park. Too bad Gruenebaum lost this match 1-0. He was spectacular.







Columbus Crew midfielder/forward Eddie Gaven (12) falls in front of Chicago Fire midfielder Jeff Larentowicz (20) during the first half at Toyota Park. I loved the look on Larentowicz's face. He also scored the only goal.

Great stuff, Dennis. It's my humble opinion that this is much harder to shoot than you make it look here. Love that first shot.

Thanks, Russ. I love shooting soccer (football) since there's always something going on, and often lots of tension and athleticism…even though scoring is infrequent by US sports standards.

The biggest challenge shooting at night at Toyota Park is the lighting. It varies from dark to very dark; near the goal is close to an entire stop darker than midfield, and midfield isn't exactly bright. I'm hoping to work a game next month that starts at 12:30 - it will be luxury.

Some great action. Did Marshall #14 get a Yellow Card in #1 for wrecklessness / cleats?

ALso, I peaked at your exif, your lighting is still 1 stop better than most of the basketball gyms even with the new efficient florescent lights. :-)

Please keep posting, its always great to look at your top of the line work.

Thanks,
Guy

Guy and Bryan, thanks. Robin, what did you do with your penny?

I don't believe Marshall got a yellow card for his kick-in-the-head play on Rolfe.

John, July is a ways away, but if I'm there, sure we can meet.
