Hi Richard,

Thanks for looking and your comments.

I just finished reading the rules for the forum and see that only one photo is to be posted.

Administrator, please let me know if you want me to remove photos

Love those facial expressions! You are so close to them... what lens were you using?

Very nice shots. Can't believe the faces these guys are making. My favorite is the second one. The crops are nice on all of them as well as the depth of field. I can only imagine the number of pictures you took that day.

Please include the EXIF information in the future. It might help some one else out (like me) that is interested in doing this type of photography.
