_DSC2094_Header15_200.jpg

for inkjet printing,200 ppi

A nice header by #15,leaping, advances the ball toward the opponent's goal area. I liked the way the people shading their eyes provided some background interest,a line of sight to the action going on in the play. If you look closely,you can see the flying yellowjacket in this photo, near the right knee of the player in the purple uniform. That is a yellowjacket,flying through the scene;the third week of September is prime yellowjacket activity season. I liked the way the people in the background help convey the brightness of early-fall type weather,and they way their line of sight mirrors mine,and how it directs the eye t o the action. THe ole' 80-400VR acquits itself pretty well on this scene too,sharpness wise; there is plenty of small detail stuff visible in the picture.
