Default Boxing: Clottey-Gutierrez@Chumash, July 29th, 2006

Well, that didn't work the way I expected so we'll have to try this: http://www.photoshelter.com/usr-show/U0000sVNzBrXx_.E

I'll have to find out how to link in to a gallery on PhotoShelter if it is possible.

Ya', but they dumb them down for presentation more than I would like at PS. I may put a few up on my own website if I get time. Oh, and yes, thanks, that one shot was a good capture, although as Muls said, it would have been nicer shot tighter, sigh.

Well, I have my own website that I maintain ... I am just not set up for boxing or the like, yet.

I have to give it to you, you are a natural born photojournalist! Always spot on with your captions. My worst flaw. I have a great little digital recorder and I even then I struggle with the cutlines. Also, I like the way you cropped the lights in the last one. I caught my eye and I was like, hey why would he crop like that I would have just cropped them all the way out, but they make a real pretty pattern/design at the top of the frame.

Um, no editing of any kind on any of the images ... all out of camera. If there is nice crop it really had to do with where the fighters were as I don't even see anything else when I am shooting.

Oh, and I am refining my captions based on mentoring from, well, the usual guy!

What lens were you using? I thought lighting at Michael's was horrible but yours look even tougher.

Canon 24-70mm f/2.8L ... it was odd lighting ... bad shadows ... but should have been OK, sigh. I should find out what Muls was shooting.

I'm still there ... 30 years looking at 35-37 before I can afford to retire! But I like what I am doing and most of the people I work with!
