Some action

Thanks for the help on the previous thread. These are pics from my first roll of action pics. I set the shutter speed higher for less blur, but they still came out a little out of focus. Once again, any tips would be appreciated.

Well, you only should post one photo per thread. However I'm feeling nice for a change...:twisted:
The first image is good, nice range of tomes, I'd personally crop in from the left and top to remove the dead space. Remember 'dead space' is the bits of a photograph that don't add to the image or help tell the story.

The second image is a good concept. I'd like to see this in B&W as well, don't be afraid to crop your images more, a bit off the right would help alot here.

All in all, good images and well done for having a go with sports, they are hard to take well but once you get one they are amazing!

I really like the mood of the first one. He's a small figure, but he's making up for it in toughness. I like that you can see a lot of the gym, it adds to this aspect. Being halfway in the picture seems to add motion to the other persons attack. I hope I'm not getting to philosophical on ya, it must be getting late! :D Cool picture!

I think both of these, but especially the second for me, give the viewer a real feel of being there. I like the high angle of the ceiling in the first shot as well. Cool the way the fighter on the right is just stepping into the frame.
