[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I was asked to take photos at a high school sectional soccer match this afternoon -- my first shots of the game since a very early digital camera that I took to my daughter's soccer games when she was in elementary school.

It was an interesting challenge, and I was pleased with the camera's performance on this one as I relied heavily on the action preset and the fast, continuous shooting with consistent focus. This shot came after the blue player dived to keep the ball inbounds, only to have his opponent instantly try to kick the ball away.

Hello Jim
I love the way you've captured the movement of the hair of the kid on the ground and the expression of all the kids. I believe some years late they will thank you for this «moment to remember». Great daily life moment.
Best regards, mb
