went to my high schools senior FB game last night. the game started late and only had an hour or so of actual sunlight. thus most of my better pictures were taken in the first quater. any advice or C&C would be greatly appreaciated.

In most of your photos you have cut off body parts, that's something you shouldn't do. Also I would shoot at a lower angle. I don't know what lens you where shooting with but you really need something with an aperture around f/2.8

ya i noticed that too, sadly i think i cropped most of them off. i never even thought about keeping all parts intact.

as for location, i was in the bleachers. it was my first time bringing my camera to a game and i wasnt sure how good my shots were going to be so i just stayed in the stands, and i didnt realize how important location is. next time i will be on the sidelines and in the end zones.

these were all shot with a 70-200 2.8IS on a 40D at either ISO1600 or 3200, and they were all cropped.


thanks for the advice, i really appreciate it. anything to make my pictures better is helpful :D
