    Dessie,
    A great set again. 13 views and no comments on shots of this quality goodness only knows why.
    All the photos have great DOF, are pin sharp and contain great action and good expressions.
    In my opinion the second shot is probably the best it contains all of the detail commented on above and if there was anything I could almost say that could be criticised is the bit of the foot cut off in the third or is it just the long grass in Celtic Park.
    I would be extremely happy to be able to produce anything like these especially as often as you do,
    RANT OVER.

    As I said in my thread on GAA photography, a really great set of pics. The shot of Darren Clarke (number 2) is excellent as is the detail in Number 4.

    The grass was indeed long, was on the pitch afterwards with my two young lads.

    Can I ask where you took these shots from? I was on the terrace across from the stand and I noticed a female photographer to one side of the goals with an impressive-looking telescopic lens.

    Looking at these shots really makes me want to get into GAA photography!
