    Nice. Very consistent - filled frames, clean backgrounds, faces. The football pics appears a tad soft but the action is a good capture.

    The football pic was shot @ ISO 3200 1/250. Its more motion blur than anything

    Really great bunch of images. Nice variety and all nicely composed. Congrats on the feature photo.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Sportpix - those are really cool. Question - what s/w are you using, or perhaps better - how did you get that cool "3d" looking edge/frame? I like that effect... :thumbsup:

    Here are some images that I took from a recent local HS game near my home ( they are all on my flickr page -- http://flickr.com/jdanvers )

    Congrats! Well deserved. I love the beveled 3D edges too!

    Really nice pictures. I am wondering what settings and lense did you use to take the volleyball pictures? I have been having a hard time taking pictures across the net, and tips to get that clear a picture?

    Nice pics. Haven't shot football since my son stopped playing youth ball. I have shot quite a few volleyball games this year, however. Some were good, some were bad, a very few pretty good. :aureola: Take a look at www.chongjinpics.com if your're intrested.
