Last outdoor game of the year

After the regular season ended I took A break. I shot the Division 2 semifinal game between Warren De La Salle & Birmingham Groves this past Saturday 35 - 0 halftime for the defending champs De La Salle. 1:00pm start so those of you out west or down south say that's great but here in Michigan the temps are in the mid 20's and with the wind it feels like the mid to lower teens. I made it to the start of the 4th and then waved the white flag and called it a season.

Thanks for looking any comments are welcome and please point out anything you like or dislike I welcome all critiques.

All shot with a D850, Auto ISO & WB

Just a little in photoshop no Topaz. I had to pump up the color saturation on the team in purple or they look blue. Not much else.

Thanks for looking Paul Happy Thanksgiving to you.

Excellent captures Richard! You have definitely captured a great set for your last football series. I'm down south and the temperatures are definitely 3x your temp
