Went down to the local oval (northern NSW coast) to see my son play football ("footy" in Australian lingo). Here's a few snaps from our national game, all photos shot with 70-200 F2.8 in murky light.

Instead of loving things and using people, why not use things and love people? :-)

Nice shots, but tighter cropping would make them more interesting.

Point taken, but I only took them small size jpg, so I didn't crop them much at all.

Always shoot at the highest setting as you never know what the potential will be for the shot till after its taken.
Could well be the next super star.

Well that my thought......:)

I always used to shoot at highest resolution to hopefully nail a money shot, but now I just go and shoot for fun!:)

Good point Khall
I did a recent shoot in sRaw by accident. Happend to take what I think was one of my best shots and now can't reproduce the shot large enough for a decent size print
