A few more indoor soccer shots
I'm slowly crawling out of the PP cellar! Too many soccer photos!
This one is from last Monday night - our boys won by 12 - 0, it was very boring! The refs played with the time clock a bit, trying to give the other team a few more scoring opportunities. Gave me the chance to get my son in action. ![]() One of the many goals for us: (the black hue to the left is actually the netting that runs the length of the field - no more leaning in with the monopod!) ![]() a shot on goal ![]() and one of my little son (the hippy!)

I use the 20d with an 85mm f1.8 lens, ISO 1600 f2.2 in order to get a shutter speed of 1/400. Lighting is terrible! ann |

Very cool! And your triptychs are a nice precursor to next week's challenge.

Thanks! I'm finding that people are more interested in 'having copies' of the triptychs than single shots!

in larger arenas, up in the catwalks. They provide nice fill lighting and color balance. The same strobes can be used as studio lighting (similarly to the ones I used for the party pics I posted a while back). Ian |

Strobes also allows you to shoot at lower shutter speeds because when the fire, they sort of "freeze" the actions.
I dream of strobes too. I love the 2nd photo of the first triptych, the expression on the goalie is great! |

Actually Steve - it's usually the ref thats the problem. Some of them actually become self conscious in front of me - some even apologize. The other night at the little guys game, the ref asked me if I wanted to shoot from the penalty box instead! I did, and it was great. However being at half court I would make good use of the 135 f2 instead of the 85mm.
Couldn't have been in the penalty box last night - big boys game and there were players in it - at the end of the game the opposition had 4 players in it at the same time! ann |
