    As usual, these are first rate. Great action and the facial expressions are classic.

    Re: Random Track images

    Nice going OT, I'd have to say track is one of my favorite sports to shoot. So many opportunities and a lot of action.

    Re: Random Track images

    Jim, Julie and Phil thanks for your kind comments. I love to shoot track because it is so varied and there are so many opportunities at each meet to come away with good action and expression shots from the athletes.

    Man, you possess a great eye for composition. I enjoyed them all. #1 and #3 are spot on. #5 is a nice one too.

    Re: Random Track images

    Thanks Jim! I appreciate the look and your comments. You get lots of chances in track and from meet to meet you can vary your position for different events to get a different look or perspective of that event or athlete.

    Re: Random Track images

    Sorry burnett44 but with Fathers Day and the kids being home I haven't been able to get to PR the last couple of days. Hang in there let me take a look at these and I'll have some input latter. I hope a few others will chime in also.
