I think your photos are great. Good color, they show action, well focused. What's not to love.

Take a quick look at number 3. At first glance I thought Number 19 broke his ankle because of the position of his foot relative to the other player kneeling I front of him. A second glance reveals it is the foot of the other player but my first glance made me think, This is going to HURT.

Beautiful shots! You may consider straightening the horizon on a couple photos during post-processing (#1 & 5). Otherwise the photos look great!

#5 is my favorite. I would tone down the highlights a bit, thought

Hi Tom:
Good work and showing improvement. No. 6 center the player. The other player in the shot means nothing. #5 throw that one away. #2 crop vertical. We never want wasted space.
Looking much better with the focus, love it.

Thanks will work on it. These are already on Max. Working on a Freshman football game I shot last night. Probably going to a Varsity game Friday as it will start at 4:00. Not sure why so early. The is why I don't shoot Varsity Soccer and Football because of the lighting but this one is early enough for good light. Thanks for all the advice it has really helped. BE SAFE!!

Nikon D810, 1/1250,ISO 500, 200-500mm 5.6. Yes the professor has made a big difference in my shooting. I just did a little contrast work on some photos. He is right I love saturation. I didn't realize that contrast would make that much of a difference and after doing a lot of work with contrast setting on some photos I see that it does look pretty good. I will work on it more and try to get better at it. Thanks BE SAFE!!
