Nice set. For me, the best ones of the set are IMG_0541, 0382, 0984. I like seeing the emotion of the player and these seem to capture more of that then the others, plus they're nicely composed and exposed. Also, (and this is just a personal thing) I like having plain backgrounds, these three focus the action on the highlighted players without anything around them as a distraction. With football though, it's really tough getting any images without a busy background. Good stuff overall

RAW or JPG? Reason I ask is it seems your post processing is all over the place with regard to Contrast and Saturation. Most (I didn't look at every single image up close) seem flat and could stand a little more contrast. By comparison, image #5 (IMG_0393) has better contrast and saturation.. where the rest seem to be lacking....

Just an observation. Hope it helps.

Skorri,

Welcome to the sports forum. Here's my (hopefully) helpful suggestion: If you really want feedback from seasoned shooters, take a few minutes to actually select 5 or 6 images and imbed them in the post rather than just linking to an entire gallery or site. Less clicks for the viewer. And I look at it this way: if a poster can't take the time to select several specific images and post those images in the thread, why should anyone take time to click through and comment? Also, I'd suggest keeping it to only a handful of images - 5 or 6 is good. I look forward to seeing some of your images.

@Jim, they are jpgs. Thanks for the advice, I am going to go back and check it out.
@Johng, I tried to embed them but when I put the link to the photo in the post I get the icon showing a broken link, so not sure what I am doing wrong.
