Photos From The Green Bay Packers vs Minnesota Vikings NFL Football Game.

The good news is the team of photographers I was working with to cover the Green Bay Packers vs the Minnesota Viking NFL football game at Lambeau Field on Sunday Dec. 3, 2012 did a  very nice job, but I’m not sure I held up my end.  In my own defense not all that much happened in the end zone I was assigned to cover.  I was positioned in the north end zone and the only touchdown that came to the north was a boring touchdown for photos, not even a Lambeau Leap celebration.  For the first three minutes of the game my responsibility was to get some nice tight shots of Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers throwing the ball.  I was able to get those photos and for the rest of the game it seemed like ever nice shot I got was of Aaron.

One of the big story lines of the game was the running yard gained by Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson.  I was able to get some stuff of Peterson, but most of what i saw of him was long runs from the back heading south.  The other big story line of the games was the two intereceptions of Minnesota Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder passes by Green Bay Packers free safety Morgan Burnett.  I was able to get a decent shot of Burnett after one of the interceptions, but he didn’t do much in the way of a celebration.

The photo of mine from Sunday that will probably get the most attention is the shot of the two Packers bulldogs Packer and Vince decked out in Green Bay jerseys and dog sized cheeseheads.  I’ve shot photos of Packer before, but this is the first time he has had his understudy Vince with.

Next Sunday the Packers play another home games against the Detroit Lions and hopefully I can redeem myself.

Thanks for looking!
