I had my first opportunity to photograph a Football game this morning.
It's a typical Northwest day with the wind, rain and muddy field. Made for a gritty game on both sides of the ball.
I learned A LOT this time out.
First the field isn't flat so I missed a couple good runs due to cut off feet by the "hump" in the field.
Second, The kids run in packs, so it down right challenging to follow the ball let alone get a good clean shot when the plays coming at you. I would love to step up to the H.S. level to see how much this differs from the youth level.
Third, I did the best I could, but there's just not a lot you can do about the background on this kind of field.
Anyway, Here's a few of my keepers from today.
Any CC or tips from the community would be very appreciated.
Thanks for taking a look,
Matt
