This is a shot of my nephew ( Red Hair), playing in the under 10 cup final yesterday. It finished Swords Celtic 1 Ratoath 1. I dont normally do sport photography. Its hard as the little feckers dont stand steady like my landscapes do :) iso was pushed all the way but didnt turn out so bad. CC welcome as usual
I do a bit of sports myself and took some advise that said “crop tight and just leave the action” It works all right, but I think the three young lads on the fence add a bit more to this than an action sports shot, I would crop #11 out though. You stopped the action well and your nephew should be happy with it…hope he didn’t get the boot in the face :(
Thanks for advice Pat. I do like the lads on fence so wont crop them but might get rid of no.11. its more of a sports environment shot than a sports action shot. thanks again
It’s a nice action shot even with no’11 & the spectators!
Just wondering it this image was taken on ‘one shot’ or
continuous mode? Might be better without the ball
covering his face.
