I changed the resolution from 300 to 150, format from PNG to JPeg and resized to 3000 from 3200 and it uploaded. I am not sure how the quality will be.

I have been busy going to football games (American Style) this fall because I have three grandsons playing at various levels. This is from a High School game. My oldest grandson plays on this team but is not pictured. The local newspaper generally uses some of my photos each week. This is one of them.

I think this picture should be titled "Ouch!!" as that's got to hurt. You've captured the rough and tumble nature of the game perfectly.

A nice action scene with very good clarity Tick. No wonder the newspaper wanted it.

Very good image with perfect timing, clarity and action ...!
This looks like American football indeed, not that I do know about it more than from M.A.S.H. movie with Donald Sutherland !

Tick, it seems 3-D! You caught it all. I can't believe how fast your grandsons are growing up. You have kept us in "photo" contact with them for many years now. Next sports upload, however, should have one of those three in it!! lol ~~ John

Man this one is hard to figure out. Hanging in mid-air like that...just how did that come about. Hope there was a happy landing involved. I can see why they want your photos Tick.

It worked for you, and the resolution is just fine!

All my images are posted at 1400 (longest side) at 72dpi..so I stick to that!

The games look good 'which one are you'??

Tough sport. And very good shot of this moment. So the local newspaper has a very good assistant. Good for you, Tick.

Nice stop action shot! and man, #23's going down hard. When it's fall is football around here. Homecomming game for my teens tonight. Kudos on the newsprint photos, most deserved.

It's not often that you get to see a herd of rams fight off a pack of coyotes. You even managed to catch a zebra in the shot. A great capture of the action Tick. Perfect focus and clarity in the photo.

That is quite the shot, good action there. Sure would hate to be the guy going down. Nice shot.
