Taken at the Toledo vs Detroit match. Division 2 Club Rugby. It was a hotly contest battle in which three brawls broke out. I shot the A-match Manual Mode, but kept having to adjust shutter speed due to the constantly changing cloud cover.

Nice action shot and as a former second row I know how much fun shutting that door can be
I'm a former 2nd row also, but not former enough. I played in an Old Boys match this May and I'm still on the mend. Made it through all 80 minutes, but the Outside Center kept missing his tackles, and I kept picking them up. I went 5 for 7 on high speed open field tackles, and my right shoulder won't let me forget it. Pretty sad rugby when a 50 year old can bust out of a scrum and make midfield tackles. LOL.
Great action shot. Exposure is great. The crop is a little awkward on the bottom left(his shoe) and middle right (right beside his rear end). I feel that if the crop was either wider to include all the information, or tighter to look more deliberate, that this shot would be even stronger.
