Culver Academy Soccer Photos: CGA Varsity Soccer vs. West Lafayette
Today was a beautiful day to watch the CGA varsity girl’s soccer team play at Culver Academy. As the day progressed, the temperature rose and I felt sorry for the girls. It was hot just taking pictures. I could only imagine how the girls felt running around in the heat.
The lady Eagles played an excellent game that was quite exciting to watch. From what I saw, both teams were evenly matched with no clear dominate team. I found myself staying in the middle of the filed as there was great action happening on both ends of the field. I’m not sure what the final score ended up being. (I shot three soccer games today.) But, whichever team won, I’m sure it was hard fought.
I’ve posted my favorites here, but there are several hundred more located at www.culverphotos.com. Just click on the “Culver Academy” link, and the “Culver Sports” section.
Culver Academy Soccer Photos: CMA Varsity Soccer vs. Concord High School
The CMA varsity soccer team played another home game at Culver Academy this afternoon against Concord High School. It was a great game to watch, but unfortunately Culver Academy lost 0-3. You can tell these kids have to be flexible and in shape to play soccer. I tried to get shots that reflect their athleticism. For more pictures, see the gallery at www.culverphotos.com.
Culver Academy Soccer Photos: Rainy Afternoon For Soccer
Things do not always work out as planned. Today, I was intending on shooting both Culver Academy JV and Varsity Soccer games followed by the CGA Varsity soccer game. The weather had other plans for the afternoon. The first game started on time despite the pouring rain. Three and a half minutes into the game, the game was stopped for 30 minutes because of thunder. Once the game resumed, the teams played for another 20-30 minutes before being called again for thunder. At this point, I’m not sure if the game was canceled or delayed. Between being cold from the rain and there no longer being any natural light, I decided to call it a night and head home. I’ve posted some additional photos at www.culverphotos.com, though I wasn’t able to get as many as I had hoped.
Culver Academy Photographer: Busy Afternoon
Today was a very busy afternoon in Culver with four different sporting events going on at the same time. Instead of focusing on any single game, I tried (and managed) to get photos at all the events. I have no idea what the final scores were, but I decided that it was more important to get photos from as many games as I could instead of focusing on a specific game. The four games that I have photos from are: CMA Varsity Soccer vs. Culver Community School Coproration, CGA Varsity Soccer, CGA JV Soccer, and CMA Varsity Tennis. To avoid cluttering the blog, I posted all of the photos at www.culverphotos.com.
Culver Academy Soccer Photos: CGA Soccer vs. Warsaw
I really was looking forward to this game as it was the first game that I covered for the 2009-2010 school year. It may have only beeen a scrimage, but the girls played as though it were a championship game. The game didn’t start until 7:00 p.m., so I was faced with a setting sun that made more warm photos. In the beginning, I was able to get fast shutter speeds with my 70-200 mm f2.8 with a 2x duplexer, but as the game progressed, I was fighting the lack of light. For this game, I had a difficult time choosing my favorites. I ended up with a lot of photos that showed great action.
