p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · 2nd college game.


I got to go to a small college game this weekend (I shot one game last year there). After friday night, it was nice to have plenty of light. I've tried to keep in mind all the suggestions that I have been given and read on here.

All of these were shot with a 7D mk ii with a 70-200mm f/4L using AV at f/4 and minimum shutter at 1/1000th.

Hey Ron! Nice set here...looks like you handled some harsh light nicely.

#2 is my fav....to bad the receiver couldn't move his arm a little so not to block his face

I'm thinking you might get a tighter crop going vertical on #4 and #5 and then fix the horizon on #4.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks JC. I was trying to handle the lighting.

I agree with #2, I was just a hair too quick on the trigger. I have the next three frames below.

I see what you mean about #4 & 5. On #4, the auto correct picked up the yard line instead of the fence/horizon.

Ron,

On my screen all of the original photos are a tad under exposed. Maybe add some exposure compensation.

All of the shots have the faces (or the majority of them) but the faces are too dark. Increasing the EC would bring out the faces and eyes.

The first shot in the second post is by far and away your best shot and it shows the face / eyes perfectly. THAT is what I would shoot for on the original shots.

Otherwise you have a nice set. Maybe work on tighter crops overall.

I went back in and looked at the crops on #4 & 5. I played with #4 for a while and just couldn't get happy with any different crop on it. To me it just took away from the image, so I left it.

On #5, I fixed the horizon and cropped it tighter and it really helped it.

(NOTE:I pushed the shadows up in all of these as far as I could and still have it look natural during the initial processing.)
