It's been awhile since i posted anything on here, to be quite honest haven't taken much lately apart from these just before christmas.

We have a growing Polish contingent at our work now and some of the english lads were challenged to a footy game. I didn't play myself as i have 2 extremely bad left feet but took the opportunity to photograph the game. In the build up to the game we were subjected to chants of Polska, Polska which made our victory even more sweet, 5-4 to the English lads. Plus i bagged myself a tenner on a little side bet

Photography wise it was interesting as i had never done anything like this before so it was a bit of a struggle at times, i would get only players and no ball or ball and no players. I was using the Sigma 70-300 apo dg which didn't produce that bad a shot, only a bit slow. Some of my efforts should be going in tne next company mag so thats a plus.

Anyway C&C welcome

My brother is in a football team and is hassling me to go and photograph them for team magazine and stuff. I got the same lens as you and haven't as yet had the nerve

Seems like a fairly good first attempt, I'm sure I'll find the same about either the players or the ball in shot and not both!!

I'll post some when I've given it a go
