Lee, welcome to the group. Great image at peak of action. The keeper is nicely framed by the net supports, and he is in the air. Image is sharp. Posted: 08/04/2026 16:16:57
Hi Lee. Great soccer action not easy to get one like this and I know I've tried. Patience and persistence is needed to get this capture and this photo is one of the better ones I've seen. Face on, ball at fingertips, crossbar just overhead and the result a corner kick or returning kick into play from the goalie. Photo is perfect. Posted: 08/13/2026 21:36:27
Awesome shot, Lee. It's an angle we don't see very much. Most of the time the photographers stay behind the goal line on soccer matches. Posted: 08/14/2026 05:06:36
