Girls high school indoor track

[SirGeorge]

Hi,
Thought you may enjoy these photos shot in a gym with crappy tungsten lighting , I say crappy because only about 75% of the lamps had bulbs that worked. I am very pleased with these - they were shot on a Canon EOS 40D in combination with 135mm f/2, 100mm f/2 and the $80 50mm f/1.8

I have embedded five photos but if you like what you see I have created a web page with a few more samples...click here (http://www.digitalphotoconcept.com/COACHES/)
and if you really like these then the whole set can be located here (http://www.digitalphotoconcept.smugmug.com/Track%20and%20Field/430387)

Camera settings:
Lenses wide open, ISO between 1000 and 1600, AV mode, CWA metering and white balance was set to 3200K . Adjustments were made in PP.

Hi George - I think ya done good for an indoor meet :thumb Looks like you nailed the focus and in spite of your issues w/ the poor lighting, I think (IMHO) it looks great.

I've only ever done out door sports and want to venture into HS bb soon, so I'll see how it goes...
