Rob Sambrook is a football photographer who is the official photographer for Colchester United. As I am created a programme looking over his images are likely to help so that I know what goes into it.
This image would have been taken with a high shutter speed this is because if he hadn't the ball would have been blurred because of the speed it is travelling it is likely that the shutter speed would have probably been around 1/1000 a second it will be at least set at 1/500th of a second. In my opinion I feel that this is a really good photograph as he has managed to get the ball in shot without any major motion blur on the ball. The image also has a narrow depth of field as it blurs out the crowd the only thing about it is some of the crowd are wearing quite colourful shirts and are a little bit distracting but it isn't a major distraction.
This image would not have required as fast a shutter speed as the top image as a shot is not being taken though as the players are probably running so the speed would probably be set around 1/500th of a second. This image is made better by the background being blurred out and no real distracting elements in it. What I like about this photo is it shows a lot going on with one player with the ball trying to get away from another. The only thing about this that I could criticise is the fact that the bottom of the ball and part of the players feet are missing and that is a little bit annoying.
