Ok, here we go.

First one, I just like the way it turned out with the processing. Second one is a shot that most all the photogs at the games were trying to get this year because it was the teams last season in the old stadium they have been playing in. Next year they move to a brand new state of the art stadium and the old one is coming down.

Well done! You seem to have a "hurdling theme" going here. The 1st capture is outstanding! I would crop a tad more off of the top of the capture, maybe about at the top of the "white hat" bokehed in the background. (I know you don't want it to appear that the hurdler is being "cramped" or "boxed in", but try it, see if would bring more attention to his eyes.)

Brent, absolutely love #1, the Ottawa Redblacks capture! IMHO, the pp did the trick here. (The pp fits the mood, expression.) Great bokeh. Thanks for sharing.

I agree. An outstanding capture with terrific processing. One of my all-time favorite forum sports photos.

I only shot one real event this year to pick from...the 2016 Petit LeMans...

This was a bucket list shot for me...night racing up the hill to Turn 11 at RA. For it to be my favorite car that I caught one, with glowing rotors...I was over the moon...

And this one represented my introduction to back button focus...I had never used it...but will never shoot Motorsport again without it...both front wheels off the ground cresting the hill at 11 at RA.

No doubt, glad TJ mentioned it!! Plus credentials weren't needed.. You wouldn't get that frame at a new track!

I saw that car and it's teammate, the #911 at the Rolex 24 and have to say, they had the sweetest exhaust sound I've heard in awhile.
