Took some shots at Memphis Madness last week. For this event I was close to the floor but not actually on it, so I was pretty limited.

Any comments or suggestions from people? I've been steadily improving but have a long way to go. The school has shown some interest so there may be some good things there down the road.

that's all I have uploaded right now. The school is actually interested in getting a couple of these to blow up to poster size to hang in the athletic office. Any ideas on any pp to do to make these stand out any more?

Thanks for looking and any critiques

Great shots. WB looks a bit whacky on my monitor. Guys have a green tint to their skin. Also, if you have a NR software package, I'd use it. Those are pretty grainy.

3 and 4 I would suggest moving the logo so you can see the feet of the players more and how far they are from the ground

Id be careful blowing them up. Im seeing alot of noise all over the image. Id suggest some serious noise reduction before putting your name on it.

thanks for the replies. I'm going to do a little more work on them to see how they might hold up on a large print. definitely some noise going on. Right now I just have the basic noise reduction that comes in LR or the plug-in in CS3 so I'm going to work on that tonight.

is anyone else seeing a green tint or the WB a little off? My monitor is calibrated, but it could be time to check it again. The watermark's will be removed on the ones I am showing the athletic department so the placement won't be an issue on those. I will move the mark on the 2 for the regular shots though.
