From a recent soccer game....
Taken during one of my daughter's U7 soccer games recently. I took a ton of shots, and was just messing around with the net for some shots. What do you think?




Grrrr..... that little tag flap on this one is bugging me now.....



Soccer cleats....

The other 81 "keepers" out of 320 pics taken, on my hard drive of course!



I still sometimes debate posting pics of my kids on the "internetz".....

Thanks! I took plenty of regular shots, and then I was behind the net, and the camera briefly locked on to it, and I thought it looked interesting, especially when the orange popped. So I adjusted the focus to lock onto the net and tried some different shots.

That is also why I usually don't worry about taking pictures at car meets: All the car meet photos I've seen all look nearly identical. Silly angles, close ups, emblems, wheels, brakes, distorted perspectives because people only shot WA lenses, etc. I'm always trying to find ways of shooting that aren't typical. Not very good at that, but I try!

the one of the 2 girls is also a great one, I love how they're mirroring each other.
