Nothing wrong with that.  Absolutely awesome pictures.  I love the expressions on their faces.

well, look at it this way...at least you didn't get in trouble for poaching elk out of season.

Shooting for me usually involves a camera these days, especially in the photography section.  :)

As always, great pics.  Those are some intense looks on the faces of your girls! Aint no messing around when it is game on for them.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

Yeah, those are really nice pics! I found myself looking for my niece. My brother sends some of these action pix of her on the soccer field. Those are really cool!!! One of them kind of looks like her. I'll have to check now.  :tup:

Just did. Your photos are much better.  :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: 8)

Bone
Do you find it hard to be a parent/spectator and still shoot?
I am a newbie with a camera, and I catch myself watching too much and forget to take the pic. I did get some decent ones this weekend, but missed the one of my daughter making a PK. This nice gentleman next to me said "mind me asking why you didn't get a picture of her taking that shot". LOL :bash:
I figure I need to specate or shoot, but hard for me to do both (at least at this point)

Lot of size difference at that age, huh? that last pic sure shows it.

Lil Bone had an exceptional tournament.  In the championship game she had 38 shots on her in her goal.  She got all but 2. 


Time for the coach to work with the defenders more. There's no reason she should need to stop that many shots on goal in one game!  Wow! Great for her, but she ought to be a little upset with the defenders.

responding to Quadrafire... I don't have a ton of photos of my boys playing sports. The memories are in my mind forever. I found that when I'd try to shoot things, I missed more than I was trying to capture. Even video.

I suppose if you're set up with an elevated position and good High def cam with remote or paying some kid to run the thing.. That's what I wish I'd have done over the years.

THanks Plateau and everyone.   There was a time in my life I probably grumbled about time lost in the field, but then I found what was really important in life.

Those are some great action shots. What camera are you using?
