Round one is coming very quickly. Before every game the teams meet in the middle of the pitch for the coin toss and shake hands before battle. I have found that this is always the best time to get some creative shots. This shot was taken during the 2016 Season.
This shot for the photographers was taken on a 5D MrkIII with a 15mm Fish eye.
