With these two following teams that makes 7 out of 15 teams covered for action shots. Not even half-way done yet. I was hoping to get another game shot on Sunday but needed to stay home while my wife went out and spent some time with our daughter. I needed to rest anyways and just spent the time going through these shots and putting together a new BoxFlex I bought.
Well enough of that, now back to the games. This first game was a boys U10 game followed by a boys U9 game. Both of these games were in the afternoon with harsh light, which made positioning and shadows rough. There were also a lot of parents out, which made locations where I could shoot from limited. I sat while shooting both of these games to maintain a low perspective, which adds a lot of impact to the action.
All of these were shot with the beast (300 f/2.8) and my camera set at aperture priority at f/2.8. I had the ISO at 100, which gave me a shutter speed of 1/3200 - 1/5000.
This game was played immediately after the above 10U game and into the late afternoon, which meant some harsh light. As the first game I stayed low, pretty much sitting on the grass while shooting this game.
9U Boys
Yeah, you guessed it "A couple of fun ones"
Very nice and good action of the goalie. Im always a bit slow with the action on goal, always following the attacker and not the goalie.
