It was great to win my first ribbon in the JUMP challenge. I had a few shots to choose from and would like some comments if possible on some of my other choices.

I love taking photos at Aussie Rules Football games. I lug around my Sigma/Bigma 50-500mm, but on this occasion tried out the Sigma 70-200 with the 2x teleconverter. I had a dream as a teenager to be a sports photographer. (I ended up as a minister, no regrets, but I am enjoying my photography as well).

Here was the ribbon winner:

Here was what would have been my second choice:

Here are a couple of others..

And an oldie, but a goodie...

Every one of them are great. Nice use of ISO and SS and great colors. Those guys can jump! Great Job!

I like your ribbon winner and the oldie the best.

these are all really nice. I love the pop to your colors. I think your ribbon winner is great and the clear choice for the challenge. I love the 'ballerinas' shot. The quirky body positions are awesome. I don't think it would have done as well in the Jump challenge, but it is a great image on its own.
