Hello,

I'm a brand new member and I just finished shooting my first year of youth football. I would appreciate any comments or suggestions.

Thank you.

three more shoots

Any comments or idea's for improvement would be appreciated.
Thank you.

I'm still a sports noob but they all feel a lil too close to the action.

Nice color and clarity, but I'm not in love with the crops. I usually like the tight crops, but the composition on these are a little off. See below...

1) should be a vertical crop with a little more of the body.
2) I like the tight aspects, but want to see more up top.
3) This one might be better looser. If he's getting some air, I'd like to see the height off the ground. If you don't have it, then I would crop out the ref. It's a little busy in the scene.
4) Very poor crop. Too much deadspace up top and feet cut off.
5) This could benefit looser too. Too many hacked pieces.
6) This wouldn't be a keeper for me. No ball, too tight, and face is OOF

Thank you for input, I think in my quest to shoot tight i've gone a little too far. This is really helpful, it is exactly what I needed. Much appreciated.

listen to paul. He is a boss when it comes to youth sports and much much more
