Anyone REALLY bored? help desired choosing portfolio

troutstreaming

Hi all,

Any really bored masochists out there? I need to choose a best of sports portfolio and am terrible at grading my own work. If anyone wants to stumble through some galleries and pick some favorites there are quite a few categories to chose from:

Soccer (NCAA DII and youth): http://www.troutstreaming.com/Sports/311281
Volleyball (NCAA DII and youth):http://www.troutstreaming.com/Sports/311282
Judo: http://www.troutstreaming.com/Sports/311283
Surfing: http://www.troutstreaming.com/gallery/2314518#120995110
Equestrian- Polo: http://www.troutstreaming.com/gallery/3107935 - Eventing: http://www.troutstreaming.com/Equestrian/311229 ; http://www.troutstreaming.com/gallery/3301259/1/183440267#183440267 - Hunter/Jumper: http://www.smugmug.com/gallery/3187743 ; http://www.troutstreaming.com/gallery/3523805#199093602 ; http://www.troutstreaming.com/gallery/3480260#195879238 - Hunter Pace: http://www.troutstreaming.com/gallery/2716315#143998463 - Fox Hunting: http://www.troutstreaming.com/gallery/2689825#142437278 ; http://www.troutstreaming.com/gallery/2684635#142138294 ; http://www.troutstreaming.com/gallery/2535551#133243939 ; http://www.troutstreaming.com/gallery/2487823#130552343 ;
White water: http://www.troutstreaming.com/Sports/311292 http://www.troutstreaming.com/gallery/1803229#92373605

I think that all of the galleries have external linking allowed, so anyone undertaking this could always posts images back to this thread (or use the smugmug comment feature and I will).

Many thanks in advance for anyone silly enough to help with this!

So, I'm bored, but not that bored....maybe, you could pick a subset and then we could critique - you should be able to self edit.

I thought the tone of the message made it pretty clearly that I was aware of the magnitude of what I was asking and there is quite a lot in there that has already been culled by an order of magnitude or two.

For what it is worth - the equestrain stuff has already been highgraded to about the top <5% of images acquired for a particular show and I only flagged a few of the shows that I could of - shooting for 5 days dawn to dusk week after week all spring and summer gives you a few images to choose from; 3 of the galleries in the Judo section are 'best of' tournament' collections; there is a best of for this years youth soccer; and a best of for last years NCAA volleyball; so that leaves a single whitewater gallery, a single surfing gallery, and this years NCAA V-ball and Soccer collection that have not been further highgraded in some fashion. As I have not had the time to even select the best of's for the NCAA V-ball and soccer for this year, I certaily have not had the time to trim that further to a small handleful so that those of you that are NOT terribly bored and feeling masochistic could take a stab at it. If I had that much time available I would not have made the request in the manner that I did. Anyway, off to shoot some DII 3rd round playoff action in the rain and add to the pile.
