I got to shoot my home league on Saturday. We won both our A team and B team bouts. It was a great night of Derby. Here are a few shots that I liked. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Click the image for a larger view.

All shots with the 1d mkIV and 70-200 II. Settings were 1/250th @ f/4 with two off camera speedlites and one on a flash bracket.

I guess at 85 views and no comments I should figure that the shots aren't very compelling. Any ideas for more compelling Roller Derby images? Or is it just not an interesting sport?

Me, myself, and I think they are very entertaining. I like the outfit on male ref. part of the show. Also the one of the girl jumping over the fallen skater. To me you have captured some great shots. I bet the people in these pics. will enjoy them very much. I do not have enough exp. to critique, just had fun looking at your pics. Les
