Hi Thomas:
Great description and very exact I must say. Nice work.

Thomas, these images very much fit your caption of "Keeper of the Goal". Hands grasping the ball. I love the first one where she appears to be pushing the ball outa her territory with her open hand. Your exposure techniques are excellent as well, but composition is high on the list for sports photography.

Thank you for your very kind words Jaysnave...
They are indeed much appreciated...
btw, this talented Keeper defended her goal with tenured skill...
And held her team's opponent scoreless in this match...
