#5. Sports Feature

For the sports feature I took pictures at an intramural soccer game on the CSUF campus on a Monday night. I was kind of nervous about how the shots would turn out since the lighting situation wasn't too great, but I had a lot of fun playing with the big lights that lit up the field. I love playing with light and experimenting with what is available, so this was a lot of fun for me. Unfortunately the games are much shorter than regular soccer games, so I didn't have as much time with the match as I had wanted, but I think I was successful in capturing some feature shots.

Two referees sit on the sidelines of a Monday night CSUF intramural match. Art Rodriguez, goalie for the Juventus, talks about the game, "It's cool because the refs are pretty fair and they are the same age as us [the players] which makes the game more enjoyable."

A few members of the CSUF intramural men's soccer league warm up before a match on Monday night at Cal State Fullerton. Art Rodriguez, goalie for the team, recalls his World Cup experience in Germany and how it inspired him to take up the sport in college. "Being in Germany, four years ago, for the Cup was such an eye-opening experience, I got to see my favorite German players and even got to have a few beers at the matches since the drinking age is much lower over there."
