Left the X-country meet to get to the stadium just in time for the last two minutes of the game, so I only got a few shots. Here is one usingsports mode.
Shutter 1/1250, Av 8.0, Iso 400, Focal 70mm. Only PP wasjust a touch ofsharpening. Much sharper than I have been able to get wide open. C&C as you wish. Thanks for looking btrips |

Definitely one of your sharpest shots so far. Were you still in the sports mode or had you switched?
I like the intensity in the eyes, and possibly cropping a little more off of the right to bring extra focus to the offence would help. ![]() |

Yep, very sharp. Nicely done. I'd be careful about getting enamored with shooting at narrow apertures though. This shot works because players dominate the frame and there isn't distracting background. On too many shots, f8 will leave a very disruptive background.
Good job!! |

Thanks Mark! Least now I know I can get sharp photos. Yes it was still in sports mode. Not sure I like the look at F8 though!

John,
Thanks. I agree, I really do not like the look at F8. If you look at the X-counrty pic at the starting line it really looks busy with background in focus. Just trying diif settings, up to this point I have been shooting everything wide open. btrips |

Great shot btrips! Nice job with those red uniforms. Anymore, i cringe when I see the opposing team wearing red, esp with the harsh lighting.

Great shot... for some reason, I really like red uniforms. They always seem to "POP" more in my photos. I'm no expert, but I think this picture is great!
