    Great pictures!

    Ah, the sport which sorts out the men from the boys… (none of this "Pansies in Armour" stuff…)

    Where men are men…

    …and women are grateful! :D

    Nice job! thumb.gif

    Of course not... football is the one where they kick the round ball and can't use their hands according to the rest of the worldne_nau.gif .

    Your pics are excellent. I like that they transmit the strength, grit, and determination of the sport. And the splash in #3 elevates that photo another level.

    Welcome to DGrin! Looking forward to future posts from you.

    I was going to comment that these players aren't muddy enough to be playing "not football", but then I saw #3. clap.gif

    Nice job and welcome to dgrin.

    I agree with Colleen, #3 is very nice, just to bad it wasn't a clean background.

    Welcome and thanks for sharing...

    Do you think this is a better capture?

    They are both quite dirty... you just cant help the background. I do like splash in the new one better.
