Soccer is probably my least fun sport to shoot, but had to shoot the Xavier vs Akron game last night and here are a few that I thought weren't to bad. Thanks ahead of time for viewing. One other thing Xavier's lights are worse than a lot of HS I've shot at.

    Hey Scott--don't know why no one commented on these; they're great. Not much to criticise on the composition, timing, and PP--especially given the lighting! A few could be rotated so that horizons are level, but this is more a matter of taste.

    But unlike you, soccer is my absolute favorite sport to shoot, at least of the team sports. It's hard, but the variety is endless.

    Thanks for the kind words, I shouldn't say I don't Like shooting soccer I just don't shoot it very much. But really thanks again for viewing and committing.

    A-10 Conference lights being bad don't surprise me, If I had my choice I would prefer College Soccer over HS Soccer everytime on the check list if I could. I have the same feeling about Soccer but College makes it fun, they chase every ball..

    Nice Shots, shooting under the lights is by far the one of the most under appreciated things photogs do..
