Gaelic Football

My first few times shooting U8 Gaelic football. It's a very fun, fast-paced game and I don't have a lot of experience shooting sports. So it was a bit challenging at times.

Currently my longest lens is the 100mm f/2.8 macro. So that's what I used 100% of the time, cropping as necessary. Love the lens, what a bargain it was too. Very sharp wide open and nice creamy backgrounds.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Oh, and for any of you who are in the Delaware County, PA area...we are looking for more players for U10 and U8 for the winter session and next summer session

good shots, I had to click it to see what "Gaelic" Football was

Nice, I had to look it up too. You might be more commentary on them if you picked a few you like and posted them here. Lots of POTN folks don't click links.

Gaelic football is very interesting. I had no clue what it was until my son started playing locally last year. It's a mix between rugby and soccer. 3 pts for scoring in the net, 1 point for scoring through the uprights.

I'll have to check how to post pics in the forum, figured link was easiest but i understand a lot of people don't like to click away.

Thanks for the tip.

That looks really fun...I wish it was around when I was growing up...
