some nice action, good captures.

maybe a little overexposed.

David:

Thanks for the comments. I usually bump up the exposure a bit in PP so that they look "right" on my monitor. Perhaps my monitor is a bit off calibration. I'll check that since I notice that some images that others post are a bit dark!

Good action, nice job! I would agree about slightly overexposed.

Dan/Dave, Anyone else...

i would say yes to your latest image.

great shots though. Nice job

I agree. Good action.

Alright, here is my trading comment. You have caught some pretty good action. The overexposing of the ice is not a good thing, as some detail in the ice is good. I love that you found the light though, and you have frozen the action well.

My photos I expose a little over the incamera meter, and brighten in photoshop, about a third stop up, then I ten percent burn in the ice for detail.
