Old thread I know but here are some of my latest efforts (I posted a few different shots to my gallery on here as well).

I feel that my competence has improved no end though I still have some way to go but thanks to everyones very wise words I'm at last getting the sort of shots I want. Some of these will feature on a club website (the team in blue) which has pleased me no end as this is my ultimate goal. There seem to be very few competent toggers covering the football I watch and hopefully some of my pics will help encourage more to come along to games. I also hope to start togging my local Rugby team in the not to distant future which will offer new challenges I'm sure.

Excellent shots there Trevor, no wonder you are pleased.

Thanks Mike, I just have to produce the goods when the light isn't as good as it was last Saturday.

I have wasted hours this summer taking motion shots of just about anything that moves, I put what everyone said here plus anything I learned over the summer together and I had nearly twice as many keepers from my first football shoot of the season than I did at any stage last season.

A couple of lessons I have learned, because of my colourblindness (both red/green and the rarer blue/green combined which is really rare) I'm best shooting in jpeg because the minute I start messing with colour and saturation weird stuff happens to the images The only treatment these photo got was a crop, auto balance in my old PS then a quick sharpen once resized
