Nill,
This is powerfully composed. One's eyes have to be riveted on the goalie. It might be even more powerful if the picture is a crop and could be uncropped. That wat the power of a small fixed point, the goalie, becomes even stronger as the ration of the space in the rest of hte picture seems to overwhelm this one small figure who fixes our attention. Anyway, I'm impressed and I enjoy the picture. The title, "Bring it on!", is perfect!

Thanks Charlotte. Here's another somewhat similar shot, along with a couple more of what I think is that same player.

And here's another series from the same match. This one might be entitled "Comin' through..."

Oh those are so wonderful and I do know how hard it is to capture such shots-I was right- the boy is very determined-and you also caught his talent- I know -my boys played this game through high school- so I know a player who "wants" to play and so do you-
I especially love the last 3-they are spot on cool- this is a hard genre you have but from the looks of it you are the one who is very talented at soccer!

Nill,
It's personal energy that really brings us to new places. I am enjoying so much the sequence of pictures of this little fellow going after that ball. He's impressive, agile, determined and fearless! You have captured his essence! That's what we all must do with our own photography!

Nill: great sequence. Tell me, did you use focus tracking, or are these independent shots? Your composition is intuitive and quick.

Well, when shooting sports I always use focus tracking in the sense of using AI servo, but I don't use focus tracking across the frame, I always use the center AF point.
I'm not sure whether these were part of a burst sequence or independent shots. I do it both ways.
