Back to Sports Photography. Tough.

My two older sons play soccer for Murrah High School. The Mustangs started the season last week with a Jamboree against other teams in Jackson. Then, it was Murrah v. Lanier on Tuesday, Murrah v. Provine on Thursday, and Murrah v. Magee on Saturday. Big week. Here are the shots (taken by Richard and me) I thought worth sharing. (BTW, the girls are 3-0. The boys are 2-0-1.) Anyone else who is taking photographs, especially of the girls, please share.

If you click on a photo, you can see it a little larger.

The next batch are from Murrah v. Magee on Saturday. It was a relief for the photographers to have daylight, but the game ended in a tie. 0-0.
