Candid shots of groups/crowd shots

[RadioNate]

I just got home from the A&M/Army game where we were tailgating. I took the food and 5 & under set home before the game started.

I took a lot of photos and I'm not really happy with any of them. I like the ones where people are posed but non of the candids.

Any tips on how to improve in this area? I didn't catch the 'feel' of the event at all.

Some of the random shots my 5 year old took ended up better!

I'll be at a lot of these type of events so I'd like to improve.

It might be helpful if you posted some of the images that you don't like so we can give you advice.

without seeing what you did not like..

even though it is a crowd, it helps to have an obvious subject. Something that stands out from the crowd:
