    Its been a while - My top 10

    Between my weekend work being really slow, and that giving me more time to spend with my 6 month old, I haven't shot much in the way of sports in the past few months. I did get out twice in the past couple weeks to shoot some youth soccer. Here are my top 10 favs from those days:

    10. Yes, I know close crop, but not much else you can do when you're shooting with a 70-200 @ 70

    Some very nice action for the level of competition Scott. Number's 2,5 and 10 are my picks but they were all right up there. Glad you were able to work a little time in for some sports photos.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Number 5 is the best of the lot - good action, filled frame and faces with emotion.

    Thanks! I think I shot around 70-80 teams throughout both weekends. Sometimes I had time to shoot a 1/2 game, other times I only had around 15 mins or so per game.
