Back to Photographing Soccer

Last season I really came to love shooting soccer. I really did not understand most of the sport, and I spent a lot of time studying it so that I could learn some of what makes a good photograph. As with the dawn of every new season you see some familiar faces, and you have a few new ones to learn. Two new faces made an immediate mark on the game today. Freshmen Nicole Robertson and Erika Arkans scored both of the Purdue goals leading them to victory. Robertson also made a nice pass that set up the Arkans goal.

Bonus Photo

Sophomore midfielder Christa Szalach has a unique way of throwing the ball in play. Her flip is fun to watch, but no one frame really does it justice. I might have to come to a game at night to try a multi exposure of the flip. Of course you never know where or when they will happen, but it would have to make a good photo.
