Frank those are very nice. Very sharp.

I noticed from the Exif that you used the 1.4x on some of the images.
On number 6 it was the 300 straight, did you crop that heavily? The vantage point looks like it was a long way off.

Great Work! excellent resolution & acutance! Also tight is right it really helps clean up a cluttered back-round and makes the subjects pop! Nice Job!

Beautiful shots Frank. 2,4, and 7 are fantastic although I'd crop 7 above his knee.
