Two Images Selected for Sheldon STL 250 Competition

Well I was happily surprised at first when I received an email telling me that one of my submitted photos was selected to be in the show and the book for the Sheldon Gallery STL at 250 photo contest. Then yesterday I received another email. At first I thought it was a mistake or that my first photo had been rejected for some reason. But after looking at the email and following the link a second photo appears to have also made it into the show and the book. I don't yet know how many photos were submitted to the competition but it had to be a lot so having two photos out of three selected seems pretty incredible. Woooo Hoooo! I am really amazed, honored and very pleased as this is the first real formal recognition of my photography work.

Photgraphing Lacrosse Clayton LAX JV vs LIndbergh

D pole doing his job!

This post is a link to photos from the March 19, 2013 Clayton JV Team vs. Lindbergh JV team. This away game took place on the field behind South County Technical High School. It was a cold gray evening and the light was fading fast. Clayton lost this game 3-1 with the only Clayton score being a fourth quarter score by Clayton defensive player Ian Reim player #16.  After knocking the ball lose from the opposing player in his end he picked up the ground ball and took it all the way to the opposing teams end shot and scored!!! A bright spot in game marked by dropped passes and missed ground balls. The field was both rough and muddy. Photos only of the first half as it got too dark to shoot.
