Great shots Latereg, the shot of the batsman is fine, personally the shots of the players backs I don't like unless there is a wicket or stumping, maybe this one is OK as you have a close catcher face on, very good colour as the whites are good. does the 120-300 with the 2x focus in auto or do you have to use manual?

Thanks Jim,
Yes autofocus still works, with 2 times convertor used it to give me more reach at county grounds
Normally back shots don't work for me, just like this one though.
