Some paper should pick this up.Scott Huffman October 30, 2007
Thanks for your comments. Actually, this shot was the center of today's Observer News Enterprise (Newton, NC) sports section. The paper has a circulation of about 3000, so a few people got to see it.Thanks again, Scott #5006571

Awesome capture! Did you use any noise reduction software in postprocessing? #5107500Nikki McDonald November 21, 2007
What great timing--everything is sharp and the stop action is great! Easy to see why this is a favorite, Scott. Good luck with it. #5108930Scott Huffman November 26, 2007
Thanks for your comments.Yes, I did use the noise removal tool in Paint shop pro. A lot of the other photographers use a flash at the night games, but this particular high school stadium has great lighting, and so I can usually get the required shutter speed with the fast lens.
Thanks again,
