Thanks for the comments folks, had a few shots of this little fella on a path but thankfully he ran off up a tree and settled there for a few minutes allowing me to get this shot.

Nicely done, I’ve tried this before and have been meaning to do it again. This turned out very nicely for you.

Fair play

Love-ly shot there Stuart, really like the warm glow off it.

What was your setup and post-processing?

It is indeed, on a roundabout at the entrance to the Curragh

Hardly a clash of jerseys there!!! Hope you weren’t covering this for a paper or else you’d be driven demented keeping track of the players on each team!!!

Great set of shots, agree with Paul about #2.

Best advice I ever got was to always make sure you have the players eyes (& hopefully an expression) and the ball in the shot. It stopped me taking pictures of players’ backs regardless of how good the action is. I’ll make one exception to this, sometimes I’ll try to frame a celebration using the backs of the players closest to me.

You’ve got the eyes/expressions & ball nicely in pretty much all the shots.

Thanks for the comment Sndipo,

yes the tights reflected the flash, I didn’t notice this until you pointed it out. Thats why I love putting my images up here, because someone else will always notice things that you don’t.

Thanks again

You have some brilliant shots here that will help fill up an album or can be used as background images.

This is something I have tried and struggled with, and you do it very well indeed.

I would feel the same about the tree shots however, as long as the bride is happy, thats all that matters

Who are you reporting the offenders to?

I am in a similar position. A League of Ireland club used a photo of mine to create an advertisement for their season ticket and when I questioned them about it and looked for payment I was effectively laughed at!!!

Majestic birds!

First one looks a little too cluttered with no real point of focus

The next two are very good, lovely portrait in the last and a nicely isolated subject in #2

Top drawer Peter,

the last one is excellent, its so hard to get two players, with their eyes open, with the sliotar and have some action in it!!!

Fair play
