Football (Flag)

rexbobcat · Mar 24, 2012

I was asked to photograph a local football league by a friend of a friend. I didn't know at the time that it was going to be flag football lol.

I don't mean fend anyone here is there are any hardcore flag football players/fans, but there seems to be almost NO climax in flag football. There's action but there's never really a peaking point, because, well, ripping velcro flags isn't really as exciting as slamming someone to the ground [I don't really like any type of American football (aka hand-egg)]

Great timing in all of them, awesome job!

My favorites are the third (even if you cut the feet of two players) and the second, for the expressions: one very determined and one smiling. Awesome shot. The last one might be a tiny little underexposed.

Well done!

What lens did you use?

Thanks for the like!

Looking at your photos again, I noticed that in 3 and 4, where the feet are cut, there is a lot of air above the players' heads. Maybe you had not had time to change the focus point before shooting?

It happens to me all the time too!

Ciao!
