Good stuff, the image carries the message all by itself

Good photo. I like the expression on the one boy's face. I wish he was a bit more in focus, but nicely done. Bumping up a point after second look.

I wish the young man whos face is showing (the one with the black glove) should be the one in focus. He is the center of the image.

Ah the things we do for sports :) Good capture and I feel the sense of excitement from the players :)

I would have preferred the focus on the guy with the black glove, nice blue tones.

Nice job catching the emotion. Though I think I would rather see the number 44 boy in focus instead of the back of head of the other.

No offense but this choice in where you put the DOF is baffling me, this shot would have been soooo much better if the focus were on the guy who´s face is turned up into the camera (the guy with the paint in the face in the #44 shirt) but other than that pretty good and fitting for the challenge.

I have been shooting the high school band and some football pics tthis fall. I do not
think I have anything this nice. I think the bandana really ties the colors together. I know how difficult it was to get a good sharp pic. Karen

wish the focus could have been on the guy cheering, instead of the person turned towards him...would have had much more impact as an image.

eyes are important - non are visable

looks more like asutdy on the hanky on the persons head since it is in focus ...

I think this would have been better if the profile face would have been in focus rather than the two turned heads.

Aww, this could have been a splendid shot if number 44 was in sharper focus so that we can see that joy more sharply detailed on his face as the touchdown is scored. I daresay that it also would have strengthed the composition if you had taken this at an angle that was facing these two players who are clasping hands as a "high five" that their team scored. I would have loved to have seen the expression not only on number 44's face but also on that of the player wearing the blue kerchief.

Nice capture of celebration. It'd have been nice to have one of the faces in focus looking more into the frame as the handshake isn't a very strong focal point but that probably wasn't possible. Regardless, nice composition and use of color.

I really like the way you chose the crop on this image. Nice capture of the emotion.

Yeah!

I would of liked this more if the focus was on the other guy instead of the guy in the front of the frame, for me it takes the punch out of it.-5-
