Every time I see Bluesman's pics I realize how long it has been since I watched rugby here locally. I was rejuvenated last weekend when Oregon State came to AZ to play ASU and UA. Full weekend of rugby--to my wife's delight.

Thanks for looking.

PS--self criticism: They all should be cropped into the action. I provided these to the players and left them a bit wide to include a few more of the team in each shot.

Thanks for looking. Now, to find more local rugby to follow.....

    Some great action Sir thumb.gif,
    you've already hit the nail on the head already they need a crop

    #1 crop up to lose some grass & in from the L to give space for the pass to R!
    #2 crop in to corner flag up to just below feet & in from R to exclude everyon else
    #3 Hard to say! maybe lose the large player to R but you'd still have his arm in?? dunno

    Look forward to more. Kind regards Graham.
    Graham.

    C&C most welcome

    Thanks Graham, good comments. Trying to keep to a 4x6 format so the kids can print at local Walmart, but will crop to a good photo for my purposes.

    Need to connect with local rugby team now and shoot some more. Was a lot of fun and the kids very much appreciated the pics. Definitely had the desire to jump back on the pitch, but the common sense to realize that is why my back aches in the first place.
