Good shot - the action looks nicely highlighted against the background.

I could easily see this in the sports section of the paper. Nice work

Such a shiny image. I think some of the detail is not due to the lighting which you could clearly not control. Would hate to be the guy in the middle on the ground - GRIN!

Nice action shot, some blown out parts in the white uniforms but not bad.

Not a bad action photo. The grays and outside players seem very flat compared to the very bright "inner" players.
