A great day for football

It was certainly that, a great day for football. Given the opportunity to shoot these days, I shoot whatever I can. On this day, I was supposed to be taking care of some stuff around the house but decided that I wanted to get out and shoot for an hour or two. Typically when I want to go shoot, and I don’t have a subject in mind, I will peruse the newspapers to see what interesting event is going on around the city. The best thing about living near a city like D.C. is that there is alway something interesting happening. There were a lot of options on this past Saturday, but I was, strangely enough, drawn to a high school football game. I know that to the average person reading this that there is nothing special about a high school football game. What made this event special to me was the fact that it was the football district championship football game from two perennial lacrosse powers. I know, I know, anything to bring lacrosse back into the mix……… Well what do you expect from me?

It turned out to be a beautiful fall day, partly cloudy, great for photography, and in the 70’s. I was able to take my sweatshirt off as soon as I got there. I was able to get some great shots. There is nothing like shooting just for myself. It quickly reminds me of why I love photography

I hope you enjoy the images as much as I did taking them.
