> Next time I may even catch a goal ;-) > Just some thoughts about this:
I spent a week photographing football last summer at Norway cup in Oslo. When the team I focused at played good, my timing where pretty good too. When they played bad, my timing was bad. I believe the reason for this is that one of the key factors for playing good is rhythm. So when their timing was good, mine where too. Some pictures where quite good, I had some of the moment before the decisive moment, and off course some with the ball in the masks. But no scoring moment pictures. I had been wondering why I wasn't able to get a score on the card. The last day I spent most of the time watching without shooting. This made me more observant about my own reactions during the game. What I noticed is that in this decisive moment me, and the audience keeps their breath, observing the ball. So I think this is the hardest moment to push the trigger. The only person moving is the keeper; it was his/her moment. I will probably go back and make another effort next summer. It was fun. And next time I will try to go into keeper mode, trying to see the game with his/her eyes. If I do, I will hopefully do the same as him/her, go for it.
