I have been doing a lot of cleaning house so to speak of my old slides and what not and the other day I came across a disc from about 4 years ago that had a bunch of my sports images. So here I am sharing them with you.

Sports Images

Enjoy!

That's a fantastic gallery! #8 of 33 is the reason soccer will never really catch on in the U.S. All those guys look like they're about ready to get kicked in the nuts. Man up!

Great stuff Jody! Love the ones of Carmelo and LeBron! Was that their rookie year?

Great images! Carmelo looks pretty young in those images. Still shooting sports? I would not mind getting back into that.

Cool stuff Jody. We were probably on the sidelines together at some of those CSU football games. I have several similar shots of BVP from back then when I was a student there. The Lebron/Carmelo images are nice to have too. :cool:

Excellent high point action Jody! #8 is exactly why I don't play soccer any more!!! :eek:

Fantastic collection, Jody! I especially like the flames-and-cheerleaders shot and all the skiing shots, of couse!

Wow! I'm impressed! Those are all worthy of being Sports Illustrated covers, let alone inside double-page spreads. How did you wrangle a press pass for those events?

Great stuff Jody. A man of many talents!

And why do you bother with nature photography? Man, you are good!

Jeez, man. Those are remarkable! Tony Longoria, Melo and that other guy that's pretty good, and #23 - the skiing shot are awesome! :toast:

The shots of Carmelo and LeBron are from their very first meeting at the Pepsi Center during their Rookie Year.
