Nice series; I like the "action" in #4.

Were some of these extreme crops? What lens were you using?

 

[CMfromIL]

Like the series. Thanks for posting.

I believe so. I like #5 because it shows the action. The tight crops of feet alone degrade image quality and honestly do very little for me. While it may convey your point of dirt and filth, it lacks the soccer aspect IMO

 

[Tony S]

Yep, some of those were cropped pretty good. You can tell by looking a the other pictures that show a wider view.

I put this series of shots together because I get tired of posting the same ole action all the time.

Here's a few more with some action, as you could tell from the first series of shots the weather was not very pleasant.....

[Tony S]

It depends on the shot, I carry the 70-200 2.8 IS and the 400 2.8 IS on two cameras. Not at home right now so can't check, but I'm pretty sure the last set were all from the 400.

A really nice set. I certainly got the feelings of a hard fought soccer match.
