This was a hoot! It was the annual junior/senior powder puff football game. It was a good game - Seniors won 14-7 - and everyone had a good time.

I didn't realize I could shoot 600 pics in one hour, but I did. And then some!

Hope you like 'em.
Mike

1) Got game face?

2) Incomplete pass (no penalty for holding/tackling the receiver)

3) Hike!

Image #2 is soft! The focus is on the stands and not the players

Thanks for pointing out the error of my ways. Yeah, it is on the trash can. But I did the best I could at the time to catch the action.

I love #4, did you do anything special for the color
on that one? I don't get color like that, it really jumps
out...

Thanks Dave. No special post processing. I'm partially color blind, so it wouldn't do me any good to start tinkering with colors. :-(

Elaine, I didn't see any of the guys dressed up as cheerleaders. They were helping as coaches for each team.

I'm not associated with the school so I don't know if it is a fundraiser or not.

I knew my eyes were bad, but I guess number 6 is OOF. That is the full image. I was just about to get run over and had to duck and run.

My favorite is number 5. Kinda like a BOB (bat on ball) but different. It's a FIH (flag in hand! :-) )
