Hey Enzo, I like this one. It's a good composition. I like how there's a line leading up to your main subject. It's a great shot but you were up against some other great shots too. Probably helps to know the game to fully appreciate it. I like the crowd in the background too but I also wonder how it would have been if you went the short DOF and had them out of focus.

Looks like too much Neat Image or shrpening on this one, especially when looking at the crowd in the background. And no wonder Everitt is gone for the season...he's not even getting off the ground! :)

I know it's not easy getting a night shot at the footy. It's a good effort. Would of given you an extra point if it had of featured West Coast! ;)

Lots of action here. Good colors and well framed. A bit more noise in the crowd (no pun intended) than I prefer. Still, a solid shot. 8

Lemme think....AFL....Hawthorn....Enzo? Nice pic but very noisy. Must have had to use a high ISO to get the shutter speed you needed I guess.
