High school track meet

Here's a few shots from a high school track meet last week. All shot with an XSi/450D and Canon 70-200 f4.

Thanks.

In that attempt he came SO CLOSE to clearing the bar.

Nice set. Me likey.

(This being POTN, it must be stated that most are slightly tilted to the left 1/2 degree. An easy fix for next time. )

After looking again I agree with you on #4. I think 1 and 2 seem pretty well lined up based on vertical structures in the shot. #3 I know is lined up because there are fence posts just outside the crop which I used as a reference. #5 is hard to judge, there are hurdles in the background which are vertical in the image, but there's a walkway way way off in the background (which I know from being there that it's at an angle) that makes it appear a little off. And using vertical fence posts and a corner of a building as a reference in 6 and 7 I think they look pretty good as well.

There were a lot of buildings and structures sitting at angles near this track, so there's plenty of optical illusions.

nice set
