Concord's Camden McGonigle, center, is congratulated by teammates Dawson Fancher, left, and Andrew Parker Fredrickson after scoring a goal during Wednesday night's Division I semi-final game at JFK Coliseum in Manchester.

Wednesday night, I covered High School Hockey for the first time in quite a while.  The Union Leader had me shoot the two NHIAA Division 1 State Semi-final games at JFK Coliseum in Manchester.  Concord defeated Hanover 5-1 in the first game, and Bedford survived a rally from Exeter to win 3-2 in the nightcap.  I love shooting hockey, probably more than anything else.  As much as I enjoy the action, the reaction shots are probably my favorite, and there were a few good ones to capture in this set of games!  Most of the game was shot from the press box area with a Nikon D4s and a 300mm 2.8 lens.
