Thierry Vincent replied
Thanks a lot! That whole shooting session has been a great moment for me… Imagine, these guys were playing soccer on the beach, they were completely into it and still they let me run with them on the playground and shoot the actions. A dream for each and every sport photographer ;-)

Très bien fait !! Il y a du mouvement dans plusieurs plans, tout l’espace est bien occupé et il subsiste une bonne réflexion sur le sable mouillé !
Parfaite
Thierry Vincent replied
Merci !
Je ne suis vraiment pas fan de foot mais je dois avouer que leur match était énorme, il m’a juste fallu un moment pour déterminer qui joue dans quelle équipe mais ils était vraiment forts !
Détail marant : l’une des deux ligne de touche n’était autre que la mer et c’était marée montante. Leur terrain se réduisait donc en largeure au fur et à mesure que le match avançait…
