bergs and macro - thanks for looking; as I saw a previous poster write "no cameras were harmed in the taking of these photos."
chungangus - glad you liked that one. Your comment speaks to Russ' comment and brings up what I always find an interesting issue. Landscape to include context like the defenders in the background, or portrait for the "whole body experience." In what I do, my editor has asked for landscape shots as he prefers context over feet. That being said, if I was shooting to sell in general Russ is right on - folks like feet!
Wingspar - isn't it odd? I think I got frustrated as I saw my shutter speeds drop and didn't think enough about what exactly would I settle for. It's a little hard to acknowledge, but even after four years there are times when I act like a total rookie. I think this was one of them. Had I been paying attention closely to shutter speed I probably could have gotten away with 1600 - thing was I didn't want to have dark faces that were not properly exposed. As for cropping tighter, I think I got lazy. Again brutal to admit, but it's the only way to get better, huh? My guess is that in the hurry to get things up after the game I don't do a very good job of being precise. I need to take the time to at least have a second look at the photos I show on FM.
And Russ, it was still a valuable comment. I always appreciate you having a look at what I do.
