    You done good Gary thumb.gifthumb.gif

    You captured some really nice action and expressions on their faces clap.gif My, those boys sure are dirty.....Laughing.gif

    I don't know how much processing you did to these, but it looks like you could easily add some "pop" with curves/levels. Not that they aren't just fine as is, but they look like they could benefit from stretching the histogram ne_nau.gif

    I've shot rugby about 1/2 dozen times and I would be tickled pink to come home with shots like these :D Of course I shot mine with a 38-200mm prosumer, but still.

    Rugby=Brutality, those shots look really good, very crisp and clear.

    I like number three the most.
