Great weather (i.e. sun) usually means harsh shadows but you balanced it just right such as the goalie's face in 3 and 4. Always the hardest part for me.
Nice....

These are great!
Lots of determination apparent on such young faces.
You shoot Canon, yes? And, judging from excellent use of dynamic range, I'm guessing raw. Does Lightroom respect/remember/make-use-of camera white balance setting, and if so do you use Auto WB, Daylight?
(Pretty sure LR has no knowledge of Nikon camera settings in a raw file. Aperture can't make use of them.)

The concentration and shooting form on #2 and #10 is perfectly captured!

Regarding LR and Nikon settings. From my view it does. Perhaps I am misunderstanding the comment.

Canon, raw, LR, auto WB in-camera, which LR sees and uses. I'd be surprised if LR doesn't see/use it for Nikon. Maybe you have to do what I do, and that is choose the camera profile at the bottom of the right-side tool palette in the Develop module. I imagine if you leave it in the Adobe profile then it might not see/use the camera WB setting.
I really have no problem with Canon DR. I was shooting in manual and mistakenly grabbed this shot at f/5.6, 1/4000, ISO 200 when I should have been at f/2.8. It was very dark, would have been a throw away in jpeg. Boosted it two stops in LR, can you tell?

I like the look of concentration on #10 the best!
Can not tell. Impressive DR.
I do not have LR, just Apple Aperture (which I love for its intuitive interface and the organization scheme).
Historically, the only software that could make direct use of Nikon camera settings (perhaps not all, WB may be readable) has been Nikon's Capture NX. Their software will do (would do, guess it has been gutted - does not exist in the same way) beautiful renditions of Nikon raw files (and by default will provide the JPG that the camera would have produced with settings currently set).
I think Nikon has an overly-protective view of what should be readable in the raw file (or maybe things are loosening up, which was why I was asking).

I'm not saying what LR can do, I'm asking what LR can do.
The last time I downloaded a trial version of LR, it could not make full use of camera settings from Nikon raw files (the only raw files I had at the time). At that time, Capture NX 2 was the only software that made full use of in-camera settings (I blame Nikon for this). Capture NX had some nice features, but was in other ways undesirable.
I'm wondering if the LR situation has improved.
