pnorth Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #1 · NCAA Div III Lacrosse Pics Hey everyone, I have been crazy bussy so I have not had a chance to post to many shots from the NCAA finals in Philly. Here are a few from the Div III game which IMO was one of the best games I have ever seen. 1. Salisbury came out strong in the first qtr. 2. But Cortlands defence was not going to let Salisbury run all over them.... 3. It was an up and down battle the whole game 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. In the end it was Cortlands supper performance that gave them the win, and the National Championship for Div III 9. 10. livin4lax was living it up 11. I didn't have much time to talk to Brent, but he seemed like a nice guy I will post some of the Div II games photos soon. It is Midnight now, and I need to get some sleep. Cheers Paul.

Nice shots Paul. Looks like you had a harsh sun to deal with. #5 and #8 are way cool. Just give #5 a little kick and bump the horizon back to level. How did Dowling make out?

SidewinderX Offline Upload & Sell: On p.1 #3 · NCAA Div III Lacrosse Pics great photos. I love 5. 4 would be a great shot to, imo, if it was wider to give it more context. Jun 02, 2006 at 04:15 AM

livin4lax09 Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #4 · NCAA Div III Lacrosse Pics ooooo, i love #8. I have the same shot, but from the side. I like the layered look better though. I agree it was an amazing game. I'm almost embarassed to post mine now though! that 300 2.8 is really something else, and those shots are tack sharp. amazing. and it was great to meet you and put a face to the posts, like you said.

P Alesse Offline Dedicated FM Upload & Sell: On p.1 #6 · NCAA Div III Lacrosse Pics Just a quick question for you guys. I mainly shoot in vertical mode for most sports, but for LAX, I like shooting in horizontal to try and get both players and their sticks as much as possible. I love #8, don't get me wrong, but I can't help wondering how it would have looked if #32 was completely in the frame. Do you guys still shoot primarily vertical for LAX? Jun 02, 2006 at 10:48 AM

pnorth Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #7 · NCAA Div III Lacrosse Pics Hey Paul, thanks for the comments. It depends, if I am shooting in good light, I am using my 300 + 1.4 TC which gets me in close, so I primarily shoot in Horizontal, but will swing to vertical if the action is at mid field, or above the box. When the light gets a little dimm, I just use the 300 alone, and shoot more Horizontal. Then Dowling game started at 5:45pm and the light started to drop off quickly due to haze and some cloud cover, so I shot the first 1/4 with the 1.4 then just the 300 there after. Dowling started strong in the first 1/2, they were only down by a point at the half, but the lack of depth and the heat started getting to them in the 2nd. They fell to Lemoyne 12 to 5. I should have some images of that game to post after the weekend. Also, you are correct about the light, it was very harsh. Thanks again. Paul. Jun 02, 2006 at 11:30 AM

pnorth Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #8 · NCAA Div III Lacrosse Pics Hey Nice shot! and you are not hijacking my thread by any means. It was great meeting you that day, I am sure we'll cross paths again. Paul. livin4lax09 wrote: here's mine. I don't mean to hijack the thread, just show the shot from a different angle.

When I shoot lacrosse I'll usually give up legs to get more of the stick in. for example, I really like this shot of mine (link follows) even though I chopped the legs off.

livin4lax09 Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #10 · NCAA Div III Lacrosse Pics yeah, i shoot horizontal a lot of the time as well, and then crop vertical if I feel like it works. I find it much easier to follow the play that way as well. paul, is that color straight out of the camera, or with some PP? It's much more vivid than mine. Jun 02, 2006 at 05:08 PM

pnorth Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #11 · NCAA Div III Lacrosse Pics Brent, the only PP I did is a little color and sharpness added in BreezeBrowser, other than that, it's right out of the camera. Paul. Jun 02, 2006 at 07:58 PM

WmPat Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #12 · NCAA Div III Lacrosse Pics Question: What's the best way to shoot when the sunlight is "harsh" as in these great lax shots? I have been using -1/3 or -2/3 exposure compensation, checking the histogram, and looking for flashing highlights on my 20D. But I am getting too much blown out highlights. I would like to be able to get better results like the ones you've posted in this thread. Got any tips to help an ametuer? Would using a polarizer be appropriate? Jun 02, 2006 at 09:00 PM

karpfish24 Offline Upload & Sell: On p.1 #13 · NCAA Div III Lacrosse Pics great shots pnorth, was there but only wish i could have been shooting it. Brent looking forward to seeing some of your shots too Jun 02, 2006 at 09:49 PM

I've been shooting UVa in white jeresys in sun all year, and I have realized that my camera does not have the dynamic range needed to capture anything. With that said, I try and expose for the skin, not the jerseys, and that blows alot of highlights out, which is fine with me. Jun 03, 2006 at 02:19 AM

IMO I want to see the faces and expresions on the athleates faces, so I overexpose by +2/3 on almost all of my shots, even under cloudy conditions, it helps to over expose on the 1Dmk2 by +2/3 When you add a little color and sharpness during post processing, the brights get toned down a bit. On the 20D I think you could get away with over exposing +1/3. Paul. Jun 03, 2006 at 03:40 AM

WmPat Offline Upload & Sell: Off p.1 #16 · NCAA Div III Lacrosse Pics Thanks Paul. I'll give it a try. Jun 04, 2006 at 12:27 AM
