HS football

Going out after a long time. It was very nice game. Used 550ex at 1/4 power on a bracket above the 300mm f2.8 IS. Camera 1dmk2. ISO 800. Aperture between f2.8 and f4.0. SS at 1/250.

#6, Got to post some cheerleaders

What I find hard is that at high school level there is not much separation between players like at College and NFL level. Very few oppotunities to shoot QB throwing at receiver. Lot of shots were just bunch of players. These are the good ones from 220 shots that I took.

Good shots...After reading from someone else on here, I mounted my flash upside down on the monopod about a foot below the camera. Helped greatly with the red eye problem.

Thanks.

I used to have the flash below the lens but it gives that big black shadows which I don't like. So I am trying to move back to flash above the lens.

why not both? a speedlite up top and a speedlite down below. ive never seen it but wouldnt it be like the ultimate rig.

Been meaning to start a thread about the 7D and the special setting where you can use the on-camera flash as well as a unattached slave, i.e 580. (not sure about which flashes do this)

But I am looking for as much info as possible (not in this thread)

I agree about nice pics--especially #2. The eyes need PP work.

Thanks Phil, I got red eye as flash wasn't high enough and totally forgot how to fix in PS.

Bobby -

very nice pics. Is the new arrival finally letting you sleep and shoot every now and then?

Happy shooting.

Pat

Pat,

Nice to hear from you. Kevin is keeping us real busy these days. That is why I went out after long time. I am hoping he can grow faster as I need an assistant to carry my gear.
