    To be completely honest, I didnt even notice them until you mentioned them. I was to busy looking at the action. I reckon with some selective cropping (tighter around the action, they would become even more less evident.

    I didn't see the background until it was pointed out in your text. Why? Because of the very strong colour contrast between the foreground and the background. I don't think the background distracts at all.

    Now, since you did ask for critique... you did ask, right? ;-) I do find the guy on the right looks so much larger than the guy on the left that I find my brain trying to equalize them... anyone else see this?

    Well. I was a flatlander before this.

    The kid on the right was much bigger than must of the kids.

    I got this pic when they played again later that day....but was it worth about 8 hours of 95 degrees heat , sun & painfully burnt legs?! I guess so cause I needed the practice...plus they are gonna use a couple in the local paper.. big money I'm sure!!rolleyes1.gif
