For Mother's Day I recieved (yes...I made a few suggestions!) a new lens -- a Nikkor AFS 55-200mm VR -- for my D40. I was so hoping to get this lens before soccer season was over!
Well, DD had a game last night and I had a chance to try out my lens at the game. I think I am in love! For the first time, I was able to get the shots I wanted. Crisp, clear action shots with great colour -- and easily too! Shots that look like you are on the field but you are really sitting back in the cheering section.
All this without being a professional of any kind. (sigh) Life is good.
Here are a few of my favorites:
This one was when she realized that I was taking way too many pics of her:

Wow - great pictures! Doesn't a good lens and the right one, make the world of difference!
Wow, that lens gets you so close to the action, we can see just how much DD looks like her Mom! What a cutie! Congrats, I love my 300mm lens - now I just want a super-wide-angle like Julie's.
Some very beautiful shots you got! I love that look on her face! Awesome capture!
love the photos, amanda. good job!
When i was home last week, we went to my nephew's soccer game. Of course I had to bring the camera as well and got some great shots! I'm such a proud auntie!
