Here are a few from this past season. I don't think I shared these yet. If I have I apologize for the repeats.
6-8 Maryland State Champions (played at M&T Bank Stadium, home of the Baltimore Ravens)

Good exposure?I was going to say voodoo, has to be voodoo!

Great images and very well done on the exposure. Looks like you had some fairly bright light which can create some rough shadowing. You handled it very nicely.

[dtiproductions]

these photos are GREAT! amazing exposure, blurring out the background, good focus, great moment shots, but i would say line up the horizon little bit so there is more angle to the action that is occurring....

Anyways Great photos.

[S.Horton]

Good shots in perfect light!

[namasste]

i would say line up the horizon little bit so there is more angle to the action that is occurring....I'm not sure what you mean. Obviously horizons should be level but with a very slight exception on the first image, they appear to be very level here. I tend to be a bit of a horizon police so its something I really look for but these are good so I'm not sure if you mean something else.

Actually, the first few, it was very early in the am (still dark when we arrived at the stadium). It was very overcast and just a nasty day.
Thanks! I struggle with exposure still and am excited I did well this day!

Man, those are some great pics. I hope I get the chance to shoot at the state championship this coming season. My Dunkirk team came up short in the Calvert County Championship game, but there's always next year...

[caroleigh]

Thanks Odie. Good luck next year. Hope to see you there! What age group is your boys?
M&T was very exciting for our boys, it was well deserved and ended our season at 14-0.

Brian is 9 and will play on the 80 pound team in Calvert, (from what I understand we're a bit different than the other counties) so I'm not sure of what age bracket he'd be in during out of county play.
