1-10 scale of difficulty, this looks like a 12! WOW!

Nicely captured, though.

Lighting was overhead with a color temp needed to comepensate of 2900, supplemented with a speedlight and 1/4CTO gel at -2.5 flach compensation, so it was barely providing some fill.

This was the halftime show for our local flat track roller derby interleague double header.

I'd imagine after one's toes get run over a few times that work boots become a good investment.
