So I went to watch my cousin play football again and take some shots. The game ended up being a blast to watch. His team was doing very well and had the lead 7-0 until the last few minutes of the first half the other team scored and got a field goal making it 7-9. Was a crappy way for him to end the half and the team was a little frusterated. They come back out the second half and do much better and regain the lead again. Unfortunately during the 4th quarter their starting QB got hit and broke his arm, the coach said it was the worst break he'd ever seen. The guy had to be in surgery for the next 5 hours from what I hear. So the very next play after this, the other team runs a reverse and scores a touchdown putting them up by 9. So now the team moral was definitely suffering. They put in a new QB that hasn't had much playing time with first string players at all and ends up doing a nice trick play where he through it the receiver and then the receiver through it to another guy to score the touchdown. Defense does great and then offense gets the ball back with less than a minute to go and they end up getting into field goal range after many 3rd down and longs and kick the field goal to win by 1. Definitely a nail biter game and a ton of fun to watch.
One of my favorites
I want to give this one to the hurt QB
The starting QB was a stud and had a ton of rushing yards before getting hurt. His left arm was the one that broke and he told the coach to tape it up... he doesn't need it.
The second string QB tried a little sneak and everyone was telling him to go down because he was in a big pack with much larger guys trying to strip it. And then low and behold I see someone emerge through for another 10 yards. This play got them the first down and inevitably allowed them to kick the winning field goal. Gotta give props to both QBs this game.
I was on Av mode the whole time at 2.8 between 70-200mm. Aperture AND focal length combine to give the background blur. If you are used to shooting 28mm @ 2.8 a whole lot more will be in focus than at say 100mm f2.8.

WTF? i must have been thinking about another set of sports pictures when I replied the second time...sorry. I wasn't talking about background blur... I could swear there was some motion blurring in the legs or something, must have been another post around here. Yours look great!

Great work man great work. I have been working on my sports images recentley. I am not great at sports in part because of slow lenses but still. You did a great job with this game.
