These are some great captures in the game Dave. I'm interested to know where you were shooting from and why you chose that spot in the gym. Were these your regular seats, or did you just go to the highest spot you could?

I'll also comment on the cropping, although this is entirely my personal opinion. I would have liked to see either a tighter crop (or a longer lens) or a wider shot (or wider lens). To me, the shots are a bit "in between." The moments captured are great, but I feel like I'm missing some of the story with the framing - either not seeing the hoop, or cutting off the player's bodies. On the flip side of that though, I don't mind missing those things when I can get in really tight. For example, the first shot is a classic shooting pose. Can you crop that any tighter on the player?

Overall, these are great shots. Personally, I would try and get either tighter or wider, depending on what story you're trying to tell. And with that 135L, I would first try to move a little closer next time (or crop in PP) to get some "player portraits." Also, I really like the plays in shots #3 and #4. Thanks for sharing!
