Fortunate to get a spot in the corner with my 2.8 80-200mm for the game tonight and working to apply all the helpful comments and suggestions. As always c & c welcome.
John - PP was a small amount of NR with Noise Ninga and some with minor adjustments with PS Elements. I did not desaturdate the backgrounds or use majic wand. Shot in manual mode.
Action is very good... probably your best so far in terms of action. But, something is awry with processing and color. Almost looks like you set your in camera saturation to a negative number. The colors are flat and drab and nothing is popping off the screen. It's also just a tad underexposed.
Hummm... What Paul said +1.. Just about all these images look "funky" to me. A few OOF a few off color balance, and a few just plain bland color. Keep at it though...... P makes P
they just look like you bumped up certain colors, the last one the orange sticks out and their faces are off in color, try posting one without the processing
