    very nice; very "crisp" nice PP. It made me reflect how B&W could work during harsh, mid-day sun.

    Thanks a lot, Tracker. I always shoot in RAW so that gives me some extra latitude when I do the edit in Lightroom and Photoshop. :D

    Another good one, though for me, this one doesn't have the immediacy as the other tug-of-war shot you posted. Still, the little kid in the big cap makes the shot. thumb.gif

    Only downfall I can see in this photo Jiro is that one of the little kids has parents that are brainwashing him. Poor kid is being misled to think that UT is the school to be at. EVERYONE knows A&M is where it's at!

    Darn nice capture, B&W looks great and you were able to capture the true action going from Left to Right!

    Thanks for viewing and for the nice comment about the shot, Joe. We're just new in TX so I know nothing much about the UT and A&M thing. rolleyes1.gifthumb.gif:D

    Well done! I like the variety of positions the kids are in, including the guy at the anchor shot who is really working hard. Nice BW conversion--rich black in that first t-shirt.
