Holding for the extra point try this past High School Football Season.

Nikon D-600, 70-200mm, f2.8 Nikon Lens.

The boys are doing summer 7 on 7 tag as they prepare for the upcoming Season.

I am looking forward to regular practice and this fall season.

Blessings,

tom

Sorry but this is not an interesting picture. Think what a viewer would think if you did not say what was happening. Like many of your shots, this would benefit from post-processing. At a minimum, it is too light and too much dead space on the right.

I have a slightly different take on the picture than abc1234. The picture shows anticipation to me -- and the open space to the right highlights that anticipation: where the football will appear as soon as it has been snapped by the center. As for PP, I'll leave that to you.

I understand your valid response. I just think that tightening it up draws more attention to the face, hands and anticipated action.
