    As usual you have some wonderful action shots here. Just got to love the catch of the helmet flying.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Not that I want any player to get hurt but I wish I would have gotten the picture just a fraction of a second later. When I took that shot I was at the endzone and I believe they were my side of mid-field and I didn't realize that the helmet came off until I saw the picture.

    Thanks, I was using the Canon 300 f/2.8L with a 1.4x converter attached for these shots.
