Thank you, bravo! I had to work around harsh shadows that day. The evening hours are the most difficult for me.:(

Thank you, Marcus!:D I really contemplated before I posted anything in sports because I was afraid that mine would look like total r@p (INVALID EMAIL) compared to what others have posted. Croasdail, Gmen, Liza, and other sports shooters here post some really outstanding images! I'm just a newbie who is trying hard to learn.:oops: I finally got the courage because if I'm going to learn all I can about sports photography, my pictures are going to have to be scrutinized by the more experienced photographers. So here I am...:)

I like 'em a lot Jenn. You've certainly captured the action and it's clear to see the fun they're having... and that's what it's all about!

Might be worth shooting from a lower vantage point next time? That generally works well with the youngsters... just have to be a little bit careful with the backgrounds.

Can't wait for your next post! Keep 'em coming!

Thanks so much, Gavin!:D I really value everyone's input here. I have read somewhere recently (I think it was at the sports shooter forums) what you have said about shooting from a lower position. The backgrounds can get pretty distracting sometimes. Thank you for reiterating that for me.:) I get so caught up in the moment sometimes, I forget what I'm doing. I definitely need to slow down and think before I shoot.

I will keep shooting so I can get better...until next time...:)

Thank you, Anthony!:) I think I photograph her more than anybody else, even more than my daughter.:oops: It must be the red hair...but more importantly, she's a really good player and one of my daughter's good friends.:)

It is the looks on the kids faces which makes the shots for me. They look like they are having alot of fun.

Computers blur the boundaries... We are being released from the suddenness of photography, the suddenness of the shutterhttp://www.photography​-on-the.net …p?p=1606920&pos​tcount=132
