Great shots, well done. Lovin' #1 and #4 is cute-as :) I remember my early Soccer days... My Dad was the manager, but we both quit to go racing every weekend :)

Nice Shots darren, Love 4th. Do you process these images one by one with the frames or do you have an action for the frames & titles?

II'm using Absolute Sharpening Web, it's an Adobe Photoshop Action, cost about $10 - its great. It resizes, sharpens, frames, and puts text on in one easy-to-use flow.

Here's the link

Its all about telling a story and this selection definitely tells a story. #4 is awesome as most of the team is in the frame and visible....my daughter has her gala day on Sunday and plays her first match so I will be snapping away as well :D

As the saying goes ”every picture tells a story” and it’s just wonderful to see 6 year olds ”gaggling together” - what fantastic tactics :D

I like your second and last image. Specially your last image! You captured the scene well, as far as I can see. For some reason my computer screen cuts the right part of the picture and I don't know why and have I tried everything, but enought about my problems. Well done!
