On thing I don't care for is the over photoshopping (IMNSHO). The vingetting and extra blur does isolate the subject, but I'd rather see a straight shot.
Also, I'd love to see a nice fast odd man rush pan shot to really capture the speed of the game. especially from your vantage point of the bench. but how many of those do you get a game ( and in the right direction).
keep them coming.

Thanks for the comments, Brian - I appreciate them - you can see the crisp unedited versions (and many others) in a gallery located here. http://www.476design.com/ib129/index.htm
Thanks again - I can't wait to do this again.

I like #74. they angles and flow to the action is sweet. If only we could see the puck. but every hockey fan knows where it is.

Tell me what you think about them, please. Feel free to rip them to shreds.
I really like the fourth one. I love the look of intensity on his face. I'm guessing he's waiting for the puck to drop? Great shot.
The first one is my second favorite of this series. I love how you isolated him.
