Any good? Or are these "after every game" threads boring?

The penalty shot is great. Was that on remote?

No it wasn't, although I am working on setting up a remote camera :clap:

They were mainly done with my 70-200mm IS 2.8 lens

[ranarama]

Out of interest what are you using to remote trigger?

[tigerimages]

I have been using a cheap remote that I got from Ebay but it's not upto the task so I will be getting some pocketwizard pro II's

Nice clear shots..
Would you mind telling me what kit you have?

[tigerimages]

40D with a 70-200m 2.8 IS lens.

Hi, I am currently taking photos of my local club for them.

Although "in focus" my images seem a little more "flat" than yours. Your images are very sharp and smooth (everyone in the image is sharp)

Can I ask you for some pointers? For example " Flying in for a tackle" is exaclty what I mean. I am using the below kit. Maybe its my AF I dont know.

The exif info is still intact, save the and check it, it always helps.

I did got thorugh a spell of centre point focusing during the darker months but now I'm using all nine points and that helps for shots like that one.
