We had an outdoor bout last night. It was 110 burning warmups and did cool to a nice 105 by bout time. These ladies are warriors. Here are a few shots from last night. I didn't get as many big hits as I normally do. Not sure if the heat was getting to me, or if it was getting to them. Anyhow, I ended up with a few good shots. C&C always appreciated.

they had some diesel powered lights out there, but I didn't shoot ambient. I had 3 speedlites setup. One on camera for fill. One camera Left at a 45 degree angle to corner 3. One behind the home team bench aimed back towards the track. The one on camera was dialed down pretty low. All get to ETTL and triggered with Phottix odins. Exposure was set up under expose ambient by about 2-3 stops to reduce motion blur and dim the crowd.

Super nice results David. Was that your home league, or a Roller-Con event?

This is a local league, I am not the official photog for this league though. I have been shooting for them a lot though. This bout was outdoors and in a very sketchy area of town. The league doesn't have to pay for the venue though, so they make a lot more profits this way.
