Hey i just joined here, obviously, and would like some critique? Photos are shot with a Rebel XTI with Tokina 10-17mm Fisheye lense and a Vivitar 285HV Off Camera flash. I'd like critique on goods and bads please :D

Thanks a lot!!

#1 and #4 are good action shots. Shutterspeed, Aperture, ISO?

Welcome to POTN Jared;)

Last one is the best of the lot..although the angle isuper throws the hroizon off.a crop would lessen the background tilt?

The rest are showing the flash.but I suppose being in a garage, it can't be helped.get those boys outside!;)

Haha thanks, with the last one i tried crops but none were satisfactory to me. The one problem with going outside skating, is snow. lol but dont worry snowboard pics are coming!!

They are all pretty good. I'd try to get another light in there to help light up your background (ceiling) in the first few. The shadow of the skater is distracting to me. It wouldn't need to do a ton but just something to throw some more light up there behind your subjects.
