    Roscoe Rush football

    Shot a game up near Milwaukee on Saturday. They played on pro player turf and it was about 120 degrees on the field. Very toasty.

    Nice stuff, but I didn't know anybody was playing football this time of year. Was it some kind of all-star game? I particularly like your first and last shots here, great timing on the first and I love the moment of decision on the last.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    GREAT SET! I think the first one is flawless, IMO. I am sure that player would love to have a copy of that picture! lol.

    I really like the picture of #36 rushing through (#4) and the last picture of #10 cutting to the other side. great timing and DOF in all the pictures.

    Thanks very much. That play by the DB stopped a late game drive by the other team to give the white team the win. Players buy photos from my website and thanks for reminding them!

    It's part of a minor league/semi pro team that plays in the midwest. I shoot them as there's nothing better than four quarters of daylight football. Ah, ISO 100 at well over 1/1000 of a second. My photography assistant and I sound like we have machine guns out there with all of the shooting we do.
