Team Arsenal: 2010 Spring Soccer, Game 1
03/29/2010 04:13 PM Filed in: Lightbox
If it is spring and a chilly, overcast, blustery day... It must be another season of travel soccer. This year and season, it is Team Arsenal. Here are six images from Team Arsenal’s first game. Due to the low light of a,cloudy and grey day, I shot these images in a Raw format and converted them in Adobe’s Lightroom. I created a reduced saturation, vintage look preset and applied it to 25 images selected out of more than 180 color proof images shot during the game. This preset details the uniforms and grass and has a healthy vignette to add some punch and focus to the subjects.
To see the full set of 25 artistically worked images, please stop by my Smugmug site. To get there, just click here. Oh... Team Arsenal won. Final score was 3 to 2.
Slideshows: Team Revolution - 2008

I love photographing youth sports. Over the years, I have followed my oldest son’s soccer career. For the past two years he has played travel soccer for two local area travel teams. Needless to say, I have been the photographer for both teams. With soccer tryouts over for 2009 and my son making his team from last year again, I thought it would be nice to post some slideshows I did from the 2008 season.
The vast majority of images from these slideshows were shot with a Canon 40D and a Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM lens. Depending on the soccer field, sometimes I used a Canon 1.4x EF Extender. Capturing between 700 and 1000 images per soccer game, I normally only process the images to “proof” quality using Adobe’s Lightroom. For these slideshows, I used an online service called Animoto.
With all the specifics out of the way... I hope you enjoy the following slideshows from Team Revolution’s 2008 Season!!
