cheers.
 
:thinking: That's a strange sport.. never even heard of it before. Looks interesting though.

I think that for me, the 1st shot does not work too well, there is too much in the shot and the player with the ball is getting lost in all of it..

The other two shots, I think they are well composed. Of course they are not action shots as such. But especially in the second one I love the shadow in the image.. nicely caught that one.

Were these taken during the same day?? The weather seems so different in the first image, in comparison to the last two.

(Sorry for not commenting any earlier... but better late than never! :wave: )
 
2 is my favourite.

It would have been fantastic with the rest of the shadow.

Off course, you can always add that with photoshop.

It also looks great in B+W.

What a curious sport! Unique and interesting shots Chris! Gotta agree with rich about the shadow, that image stands out for me.
 
That is a bizarre sport especially on road bikes!

2nd image is my favourite however have to agree with Rich about the shadow.
 
I like the second one (y)

I was at Bike Polo European Tournament in July and I know one of the teams in it went to a tournie up at Brick Lane, Oakenden Pedallers they're called.
