    yep, missing a few pixels there on the left, but it's not cropped, just 'caught...almost'

    Great captures Kay. Looks like you got some pretty good seats to the Australian Open.

    ... & the 'other Andy'... not sure what's happened to him, maybe his Mum isn't pushy enough to get him scheduled on the show courts (eek)

    Hi John the non IS version of the 70-200 @ 200. Rules of spectator entry were 200mm maximum.

    Good action shots, Kay.

    With the first one I think I would be tempted to try cropping a little from the right side and adding a fraction to the left by extending the canvas then using clone or even copy and paste to fill the new space.

    Just a little bit more would make a lot of difference.

    wouldn't it though!
    I didn't think of adding on like that - I'll give it a whirl - cheers!

    Hi Kay

    We went to the lead-up tournament in Brisbane but I just get envious of those press guys with their 1000mm lens or whatever they are - and they get the best seats in the house !

    Nice captures.

    Andy the Scot won that tournament but I don't like his chances in Melbourne.
