Friday Night Lights

High School football is a Friday night tradition in the U.S.A. Some folks take is so serious and lose sight that it is just a game. Win all all costs is the feeling many have when the players suit it up for combat. Luckily, there are those who still realize the world doesn't turn on the outcome of these contests. This was taken in Marceline, Missouri, the boyhood home of Walt Disney. I am sure he would have enjoyed the sport as it was meant to be. You can read more about Marceline here.

I generally have some light during the first half and use my Nikkor 70-300mm, 4.5 to 5.6 lens. When night comes, I use the Nikkor 80-200mm. 2.8 lens. This was taken with that lens. I might enter it in the contest for a change of pace. Marceline (black uniforms) crushed our team during the contest. My grandson was on the losing time but he didn't pout at the outcome. Neither did I. This is not him pictured.
