    The flash seems a bit too strong on the flashed shots.

    The colors don't really pop on 6 & 7 and the framing on 7 is wrong. Too much dead space on the right.

    8 & 9 seem to have a bit of a tilt to the right and 9 needs more pop to the colors.

    I'm better at pointing out negatives, so I apologize. The really positive thing I see is faces.

    Thanks Sean, thats what I was looking for.

    Im still testing the flash under the mono pod. Im not sure if I had the flash compensation bumped or not.

    6,7,9 were all taken the same time of day on friday and saturday, shadowed part of the field near sundown. I was afraid of makiing the blue field too blue.

    The tilted horizon....got it.

    On #7, tell me what you think is wrong with the framing. Im guessing he is too centered.

    I cant improve without C&C, so thank you again!

    just crop 7 tight on the ball carrier and the tackler. everything else is extraneous.
