I really like all of them, nice action and quite sharp. I really like your blurred background in a few of them. My son is taking up lacrosse this year (giving up baseball) so I'm hoping someone else will chime in with some helpful pointers on shooting the sport (I know nothing about it other than it looks like a combination of ice hockey and soccer). Great job in my opinion, I'd be really happy with them!!

Hi,
I'll chime in with my where to sit for lacrosse, but everyone has their favorite spots.
Personally for mens lacrosse, I don't sit behind the plane of the goal, because I'm a coward and don't want to get hit by the ball. For younger boys (less than high school) and girls, you're probably safer going farther back along the sidelines. I've seen refs in SoCal stop games for people behind the goal line. (but usually just if it's little kids who might die at a college game).
Then again, I've seen Dirk Dewachter lying prone on the ground at the corner of the endline taking pictures and he gets some great shots.
I park on the ground either just at or within 10 yards of the front of the goal, on the sidelines. Sometimes I sit at the front of the box, but not too much.
Your pictures look great though. as always.
