A Little Hockey

On occasion, I shoot hockey tournaments for a youth sports photography company.  The days are long, and the food choices are only nachos and hot dogs, but it is fun to watch those kids get riled up.  The little ones, under 12s, and sometimes under 10s, get excited for scoring their first goals, and sometimes skate down to one knee like their heros on TV.  But more often than not, then end up falling over, or run into a teammate while trying to high five from excitement. And the older kids just want a reason to knock someone down.  Sometimes I wonder how much testosterone is in teenage hockey players.  Its gotta be more than any other demographic anywhere. 

These was taken with two Photogenic 1250s in the stands bouncing off the ceiling.  One on either end of the stadium, at full power to bump the exposure just over ambient.
