Nice work.

I can appreciate how hard it is to shoot under lighting like that from my own experience with handball.

While it's tempting to stop the lens down a bit and lower the ISO, it has brought out subject movement in #3, which for me is the best shot in terms of framing, action and facial expression. It was shot at 1/200 at f2.5, with the extra ISO and aperture it might have eliminated subject movement.

You're pressing the button at the right time and your exposures are spot on. Good action shots! Only comment I would make is to use a larger f-stop to throw that background out of focus a tad more.

Thanks rooboy.

I was trying to keep the noise as low as possible, the trade off was a little motion. I think next time I will boost the iso to 1600, or open up the lens more.

Thanks Matt,

I will keep that in mind for next time, though I was thinking I would try a slightly longer lens, maybe I could borrow an 85 1.4 or 1.8 :lol:
