OK so I did not get too many good action shots from
the game Metro 1 Men semi-final.
The score: Adelaide 1 Adelaide University 2
BUT I did get one extraordinary shot.
With good fortune I was positioned in the grandstand
producing a good angle.
I love lobbed balls and follow through because there is
always the potential for a good action shot of the receiver.
This was the case where the receiver made an extraordinary effort to
intercept a high lobbed ball.
I took two shots, the first,  a preliminary step,
the second, the outstretched leaping intercept.
Surprisingly with the intercept the ball was kept in play,
even tho it was close to the sideline.
A great effort, producing a great photograph.

PREMIER LEAGUE MEN'S HOCKEY Adelaide (AHC) 3 - Adelaide University (ADUN) HC 1 played Saturday 30 May 2015

The game was played at 4pm at AHC's home ground, Pea Park.
Slightly damp and warmish it was a beautiful afternoon.
A photographers wish:
To be remembered for my photographs rather than my words.
Shooting constantly at 1/500 second I find myself in another space when it comes
to communicating orally. Hopefully the photographs tell the story.

What coin toss?
