first time? way better than a few people I know who have been shooting hockey for a few years. Only comment would be watch your horizons in last photo. I know you might lose puck on stick if you rotate properly but crroked horizons like that are just not natural and look odd. Keep shooting!

Hard to believe this is your first time. Amazing!

I love how you can still see the detail in the ice, yet the faces are not underexposed!

Great shots. Remarkable for a first time shooting hockey. Great composition. At most of the rinks I shoot, clean glass is hard to find. Way to go!!

I especially like #2 where you've captured the flex in the stick before the shot
