Some nice action shots.

Where were you shooting from?

Hi,

Very nice shots. You have great timing too. What lens and setting are most of those at?

bobbyz, thanks for looking in , I was sat approx 5/10 yards from the corner flag.

Wiphotoguy, thank you for the kind words. Most where took on AP with a 70-200 & a 1.4x convertor.I used a D2h with spot or matrix metering depending on when the sun got out. Kind regards Graham.

Nice shots.

I just got done updating "Huddersfield and District Association Football League" on Wikipedia. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huddersfield_and_District_Association_Football_League) You may have more up-to-date data.

PS: do you get to shoot at Huddersfield Town F.C. games?

Hi Caleb, yes i have the web site thanks, I use it sometimes to pick the match to cover that weekend (paper usually wants a high division top of table clash). Yes i do get to cover the Town match sometimes. I have posted a couple on this forum a while ago now!, i've probably removed them now but here's a sample! Are you from Huddersfield originally? . Kind regards Graham.

Huddersfield V Swindon

No, not even close. Born right here in Minnesota USA. Big Man Utd fan as well as a big soccer fan, so I took it upon myself to update the HDAFC Wikipedia site. Still waiting on Tuesdays results for Div. 1, 2 and 3 though so as to complete the season tables in Div. 1 and 2.

BTW: were you referring to H.V.Academicals Reserves, because they're second in their division, but H.V.Academicals is tenth in Div. III.

Edit: Are you shooting for the Daily Examiner?

yes the first game was the Res they where also in the Gee cup final last tuesday night against Meltham but lost 2-1.

Yes it's part of the Examiner called the holmevalley express and is part of the weekend Examiner. Kind regards Graham.

Get into the big league, your wasted where you are! Great shots again.

Thank you Mark for the very nice comments, look forward to maybe meeting you at our next footy encounter . I am, unfortunately, at the rear end of any career change now!!, (I was a sports freelancer in the film days, with national paper back pages, but had to get a "proper" job when digi first came in as, at that time i didn't have the thousands of £/$ needed to compete with the established photo agencies. I am slowly building a Reputation as a local sports shooter now so i suppose that will have to do for me at the moment , Kind regards Graham.
