Good job getting the faces in pretty much all of these. Number 6 is real nice, and could run anywhere.

First one doesn't do anything for me. The large player in the foreground distracts, and blocks the guy with the ball.

Last one also doesn't do much for me. Wide shots are always a challenge as it's tough to keep interest across the frame.

Thanks for the comments. I agree with you in general regarding the wider shots. I was just trying to convey another aspect of the game aside from the intimate one-on-one battles.

Thanks again.

I agree that you got some nice faces in these, and that is important a lot of times. The ones with the cars have cars in them. But, that is a common thing with non-pro sports anymore. Not much to do. The middle 5 or 6 are really good. I like the action and they are good examples of soccer itself.
