No. 13

This is the last one of the season. Taken with a Nikon D200 and 70-200mm lens @ ISO 800, f/5., and 1/320. Your comments and suggestions are appreciated.

Nope doesn't do anything for me. Looks like colour has been bumped up to much (red socks) and part of the person cut out of frame on the left. Must have been an overcast day? Maybe it lacks some contrast to give some shine to the image? Not sure. I'd have let ISO go to 1600 or even 3200 if overcast and taken a different composition, though in these fast sports I know that's hard to set up, hence I take wider than necessary and crop later.

Its a nice action shot, but yes I do agree with Shoot, that the color looks a little off...maybe you would be able to equalize it by warming it a bit?

the red socks are a bit distracting.

Thanks all. I wondered it this one would get a comment. The red socks are that pretty much that color. No adjustment to them.

The red looked fine to me, but the whole shot has a severe blue cast, almost like you shot it in daylight with the white balance set to tungsten. Considering the additional composition concerns of ShootMe and Dubbs, maybe consider some creative license to isolate the action?

#13 is wearing some pretty serious nail polish too ...

Yes. I noticed that. The nail polish clashes with the dirt on the knee.
