SOB Volleyball - Day 5

Last year's South of the Border Volleyball Vacations was the first to feature an exhibition by the professional athletes on the trip. Four male and four female pro volleyball players accompany the 196 guests for the week they are in Ixtapa. These pros play games with the guests, have drinks with the guests, party with the guests, and general interact in a way not possible with most professional sports. Rarely, however, do they get the chance to really play at their highest level, but tonight's match was just such an opportunity. When the sun started to set, I knew the type of photo the organizer would want. I lucked out when the hitter and blocker lined up perfectly with the sun and I caught the flying ball in a great position. None of the other shots turned out this well, but you only need one (for both blip and in order to make the client happy).
