Some with D200 and some with D700, all with 300 f/2.8 and most with 1.4 TC
Wow, those are fabulous! Love the clarity and how crisp they are and how they pop out from the backgrounds. Well done!
PS - and I love how a couple times the girls look like they are actually smiling! In boys soccer I see nothing but grimaces and tongues hanging out (!)

Thx! These girls are still at the 'non-lethal' stage, I think that starts next year

Very nice. #5 is the only one I think is kind of weak, just because the girl's pose and facial expression aren't that good. #4 seems like it could use a little more contrast. The absolute motion freezing is a matter of taste; obviously you got what you wanted, and it looks great, but I personally like to let just-kicked balls and arms and legs that are obviously in rapid motion to have just a little blur to communicate the fact that they are not in fact trapped in amber. But these are quibbles. Your shots are excellent and well-framed, and DOF is just right. Good work!

thx. I've tried the motion but the portrait look tends to sell better
