Images from Torquay

Images from Saturday may be found at

Torquay images

The playing areas were lit with sodium discharge lighting (typical sports centre lighting) and so post-production took much longer than usual! :D

50 is A Balaji, whose forename I cannot recall how to spell right now.

54 is Simon Greely.

I just wonder if the 'proof' mark, while remaining prominent, could be a little more discrete (perhaps positioned to the side and a little smaller).

BUT: Good pictures, John.

I have done this previously but the images are then borrowed/stolen, the proof mark cropped out and the images published with no credit or payment.

It would appear that there is no shame in doing this.

I have found many of my images on Facebook as profile pictures: very flattering but it does not pay the bills! :D

The EXIF data allows me to track them down however.

Thanks for the thanks!
