Entire set as a slide show can be viewed here

nice set,
400mm 2.8 would have given you more blurred background (but that's not a cheap lens!)

Would love to have a 400mm 2.8, but I like having all my body parts too and if I brought one home my wife would start chopping stuff off! I just don't understand why...

Very nice. You did a good job of making those bland grey uniforms pop from the background.

Thanks Moose, I am getting better, far from some of the really good shots I see here, but I am finding things to be coming around. Was a pretty big step to get the 300mm 2.8 and really just now starting to get comfortable working with it following the action. SOOOO much different than the 70-200 w/1.4x even. I also got the Focal program and used it to set the micro adjustment settings, made a pretty big difference. I am really wanting to get out and practice, thinking about going to the local dog park to work on keeping on target of moving erratic objects, but the weather in North Texas has been pretty crappy lately.

Agreed, great shots. I've been trying to get better at sports photography and have been going out to the local soccer fields. Seems like there's always a game going on. Did that this evening, but tomorrow is 71 and sunny here in big D so I will be out on the bike!! Again, awesome shots.
