First Track Meet

Well, somewhat unexpectedly, I shot my first Track and Field meet today. I have only been to a few track meets, so I wasn't sure what to expect, or exactly where to be.

My first action shot...

Sorry I can't help you with the glare question. On the long/triple jump maybe show the sand pit. Shots of the sand flying upon landing can be fun too. Gotta see the feet on the fast runner! You've got alot of nice action shots in your gallery.

Thanks for the reply Big H...

I'll admit, I chimped a lot on Saturday. I noticed the lack of sand in the first dozen or so long jump shots, and adjusted accordingly. I'll post another shot later this evening. The sand was rather clumpy and therefor didn't "fly" much, but my son landed, and dove forward rolling through the sand... He had a blast.

I would have loved to get the feet on the quick runner, but he came up on me so fast, I couldn't adjust in time. I was sitting on the curve right in front of him. I saw little kids on the line and figured I had a few seconds, next thing I know this kid is barreling down on me. I was lucky to get that shot! I got almost all of the other runners after he passed me. I'll know better next weekend when I see him at the line.

glare can be helped with sun setting on WB
I think
