High School Football – Pullman vs Moscow – Sept. 14, 2018

This evening I was given the opportunity to step on the field as a photographer at the Pullman High School football game. This was my first chance to get up close to the game action. I had a great time doing this shoot. I tried getting photos for multiple angles around the field.

I used my Canon 70D with a Canon 70-200 f/2.8 IS USM II lens. I had to pump up the ISO setting pretty high to allow my shutter speed to be fast enough to mostly eliminate the blur from the action in the photos.

Pullman High School played Moscow (Idaho) High School at Hobbs Field in Pullman. It was all Pullman. After the first half of play the score was 41 – 7. Pullman scored in the second half and started the running clock rule for the game. The final score was 48 – 7.
