Cool shot! That is a great capture of that check!

You're right, the reaction of the kids really makes the shot.

Top notch. Thanks for showing it!

Cheers!

I'm just starting out in photography. Did you have a pass to get down by the ice for the action? They never let me. And nothing through the plastic is ever going to turn out that clear!

Must have missed this one.

That is one AWESOME Photo. The first thing that went through my mind was the reaction on the fans faces. The next was WOW what a shot. Great Photograph and I'm glad I had the opportunity to see it.

As for the post above, I volunteered to shoot some different sports and I finally got a call from one of the local Universities to shoot a tournament. Volunteer for some shoots and if they like the work they may contact you. One other way is to talk to the paper about freelancing some of the games.

Yes, the local universities are pretty good about letting you shoot their events if you show them some previous work and provide them a copy of the images so they can use them ro recruit, etc. This was shot from the second level of the arena(looking over the top of the glass)with a 300 2.8

Thank you all for the complements.
