Project 365: February 28

Project 365: February 28

My wife got tickets to the Loyola - UWM basketball game through the Loyola Alumni Association.  This was my first college basketball game ever.  Here is my weak attempt at being a sport shooter.  Of all the “action” shots I attempted, this was the only one worth sharing.  I’d even write a proper caption for this if I knew who the players were, or remembered the score.

I’m just not cut out to be a sports shooter - I know I could have had better result with better equipment (I had my slowest lens with me), but it really doesn’t excite me. I’d rather just watch the game.

Sports shooting is tricky and with basketball I found that the only way to get anything half way decent is with a big lens on the court. The trick I found is just volume. My two cents. (Photoshop.net had some great tips… good for shooting the kids playing soccer.)
