Thanks Don, yeah that poor kid. He just bounced up and kept playing. The other kid was tossed. Why I don't know, looked like a clean hit.

Looks like he should be in concussion protocol...
Those are pretty good photo's considering the sun AND the astroturf ...
I well give two

for these...

Hi Tom, yes the lighting was rough and a challenge. That's what we do right try to still get the shots whatever the situation.

Hey Jules. How are you doing. These are nice. I have shot a few games lately that the sun was awful. We have one stadium we have to go to that the turf reflects the light like a mirror, it's football stadium hard to get shots you have to be at the right spot all the time. If I get a chance will post some shots I got in the last few days. Keep up the good work. Shoot tight. Thanks

Hi Tom:
Latest gallery looking good. I looked at it yesterday before I went shoot a varsity bb game. Keep up the good work.
Yes those stadiums are a hand full with all the reflections regarding the sun.

Great shots! My son played for 8 years...rough sport but so fun. My daughter plays now and the girls play a lot differently. My daughter would rather play like the boys! I have zillions of lax shots, none as good as yours. Maybe I'll post a few. Again, really nice shots!

Great shots in a tough environment!

The kid was tossed because you’re not allowed to initiate the hit if you have the ball - and he’s twice the size of the other kid, so he needs to learn that before he hurts someone.

Thanks for looking and the nice words. Post some pics.

Thanks for explaining the rules of the game. I didn't understand at the time of the ejection, now I know. Yep that poor kid took a hit for sure.

Hey Jules,

Wow!! Nice shot, as an Old Man I can feel the hit.

Awesome work Thanks for sharing.

I will personal email soon, got my headlights replaced (cataracts/lens implants) Maybe now my attempts will be better, especially color balance more cool than the yellowish cast the cataract protein I was seeing.

Love Your work.

and as You say, "Be Well, Be Blessed".

I really want to shoot some lacrosse. I shot a practice at our high school one day and loved the results. We really don't have much Lacrosse here in the midwest. I did locate some games but was to late in the year and conflicts with schedule kept me away. Next year though will make some time even if I have to miss some other event. Good stuff. Shoot Tight.
