p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · LL Sportraits?


Based on feedback in a previous thread about trying for more "sportraits" (new favorite word) here are a bunch from the past couple games I shot. On the right track? As always, any CC is valued!

6. Should I desaturate the player in the background some? Feels like his jersey's competing with the main subject's face.

Looks good. Only ones I would say no on would be 2,4,7. Simple solution on #6...

Good quick, easy fix Paul..
Also to my eye #3 colors seem off compared to the rest?

Paul - when I saw your crop, I had one of those, "Oh, duh!" facepalm moments. Thanks for the idea on that.

Corey - agreed, I went back and fixed it.

fstop - thanks!

These are nice. Not a big fan of the cut out body parts in 2, 8 and 10 though. You seem to be going for very tight framing, which might be generally fine given that you are mostly doing head and shoulder portrait style shots. However in some cases such as number 2, you need a bit more space to show the context.

Thanks Bill. Curious - I definitely agree on #2, and #10 probably would have benefited from me taking a step to my right, but I actually don't find it as much a problem in 8 - I think it's enough there for the viewer's mind to fill in the gestalt, and it's not as minor a cut as in 10 where it just feels like (and was) a compositional faux pas. That said, I was definitely more conscious of composing with a bit more context/bit less amputations this evening, given your feedback.
