Taylor,

Not a bad shot. I agree with the previous posts; shoot from the goal line and try less depth of field. I also tend to shoot soccer more often with a vertical orientation.

On the other hand, I think you did a good job capturing the action. Many soccer photos catch players in awkward postions, and the viewer is lost as to what is happening. Here I can figure out what is happening and what #22 is likely to do next. (Of course, I have a lot more experience playing soccer than shooting it!)
