Dessie, welcome back. Keep an eye out for Oliver McVeighs gaelic photos. He's the renowned master. Because the ball is usually held high, he tends to crop very tight to show close ups of faces and expressions and captures the intensity of the game. If you cropped 1,2 and 5 just to show faces and the ball you'd be on the right lines.
What size of lens are you using?

Can't be, he has loads more hair. :lol:
Hows the young lad at football, if he's half as good as his dad, there'll be a few premier league clubs after his signature before too long.

My 40D is still in Glasgow hopefully getting sorted this week. AI servo focus was off, so they're resetting and aligning the auto focus system and re-callibrating so hopefully it'll resolve the issue.

Hi Dessie. Nice pictures for your second time out (It's that P word)
One question way not try to get some shots of the players running to-wards you rather than running past you.
Cheers "Good Luck" for day 3.
Ken.

EDIT. That jumping picture of you that was taken a few weeks ago. Looked great, can you still jump that high?........:)
