Local Football (Soccer)

I have the pleasure of living a short walk from the local sports field so every time I hear whistles blowing I try to sneak away from the house and snap a few shots

Here are a couple from the past weekends

#1 is nice, but crop out the dead space left and right with the part-bodies in the background.
#2 is badly framed, shame you cropped out the player on the RHS. Would be better if you were sat down.
#3 is just OOF, never mind the ball being in focus! Personally I don't like heavy vignettes. Shot does nothing for me.

You've got some good shots on Facebook, but its really necessary to be critical and ditch the stuff that doesn't cut it. The more you do, the better the 'keeper' rate. Keep it up!

Thanks for the feedback, I know what you mean about the crop in #1, the only reason I don't crop like that is because I like keeping constant with aspect ratios, it bugs me when I see all shapes and sizes especially in an album.
