Challenge: Team Sport Action (Basic Editing I)
Camera: Canon EOS-1D Mark II
Lens: Sigma 120-300mm f/2.8 EX APO IF HSM for Canon
Location: Powell High School
Date: Sep 14, 2004
Aperture: 4.5
ISO: 50
Shutter: 640
Date Uploaded: Sep 14, 2004

Caught the middle of a freshman high school football game. I couldn't spend much time there and this was the best I got while I was there. A little disappointing, I was hoping for that one crazy looking tackel. And of course I saw one as I was leaving, not that I would have caught it anyway. This is the first time I have tried shooting football. Not quite as easy as I thought it would be.

Hey, this is a good moment. I like 32 reaching his arm out.

Well done! You caught a good moment, no doubt! I'm sure plenty of people are whining about the fact that the runner's foot isn't entirely in the shot, but I don't find that to be much of a big deal.

This is a good picture. Nice composition. Above average, just not a favorite.
