Hi Joe:
That's a real nice collection of sports photography, Joe. Lots of nice close
up shots and good expressions. Did you crop a lot of those shots? If not,
what lens did you use? Also, some of the shots look like flash was used, but
you wouldn't use flash during the game, right? Love the shadow shot!
Your group has a total different look, feel, style than my shots. Very
interesting to see the difference. Big thanks for posting!
Cheers, Christine
