Your exposures always look good. Maybe a touch heavy on Sharpening, but NR looks fine. Nice action, especially on the jumps.

In #2, looks like you focused on the player behind the ball carrier. Odd headband... get a haircut ;)

Check the img tag in #3.

Thanks Clarence! The more I look at it, the more I agree on #2. The player behind does look a little sharper. And the kid with the headband was actually quite a good player. I couldn't help but wonder how much better he would be if he could see where he was going........

No Clarence, that kids a fan of Chris "The Birdman" Andersen of the Denver Nuggets! He just needs a wider headband.

Great shots of the little ones! Numbers 4 and 7 are my favs.

My son's season ended earlier this year. The team did pretty good going 6 and 2 for thier first time being in the Prep league. They opted out of doing the tournement because of finacial, health and time issues. Maybe next year!

Oh, no way is Andersen as annoying as Rodman used to be. He blocks 4 shots a game on average. And his rebounding is stunning. He's called "The Birdman" because of his vertical leap. He skis over the top of everyone else out there and he's an exciting player off the bench. And since coming to Denver, he has really changed his off court ways for the better as well. Truely a "Good Guy" in the NBA.

You just don't like it when he blocks the ball on your favorite team! ;)

Talent is no way a trump to character, thats what wrong with professional sports, the fact that they can play ball well, gives them a pass on character, just like any star...

Sad but true...
