    get rid of the vignetting. It really detracts from the images.

    Agreed. Especially on every image.

    Why Vignetting on ALL ???
    Very distracting, and ease up on the PP. Too blown out.

    What really distracted me were the dental protection. The images look nice for me.
    This game resemble me like football-soccer but with a stick. Right?

    So, as a photographer, what are you going to do about it? It is part of the sport. Just sayin'

    Personally, I try to shoot as tight as possible and crop tighter. If the composition is pleasing, vignetting won't be needed.

    @MT Lacrosse is unknown for me. That why I got distracted by small details which are common but for me are curious things.

    Smugone, Let me be the first to say welcome to Dgrin and thanks for your post. I'm sorry you got jumped on so quickly with your first post. I know that can be disheartening. If you post here, you will have to be thick skinned, because people will tell you what they think regardless of if its nice or not. Personally, I try to remember to not to critique people's images unless they ask for it. One thing I would suggest to you is to number your pictures so if people want to comment on a particular image, they can just say the number. Other than that, glad to have you here.

    I love the shot of the team huddle in the rain. You can see they are all soaking wet. Good emotion.

    I like the rain shots, and the keeper shots too. Agree with MT about tighter cropping, as it will leave less distracting clutter. Also, it may not have been possible to do this, but try to get a clean background for the shots. A number of your shots would be much better if the background was either clean, or blurred out more.

    I'm a huge fan of the saturation slider being used. So excellent job with the rich colors, but I totally agree about the vignetting. You don't need it. I think a lot of your images pop well enough on there own. :B
