So. Much. Football. (11.9.13)

So, it's playoff football season, which means I've been covering football nonstop. In the last two days I've been at five different games. Four high school games and one college game.

It's been kind of fun.

There's been more early games lately, which means better light. A nice change from shooting after dark.

Here are a few of my favorite football photos from the last few games I've covered.

Thanks for looking.
