I was just fortunate to be in the right place at the right time.  #2  #3  #4  #5  #6  Eric

Also by cropping tighter you will draw the attention to the players and not that big ugly garage in the back ground. I wish we had day light games down here.

Great work and nice 'catch' on your part. Canon 5D2 > 35L-85L-135L

I really wasn't sure how to crop these. The schools around here play daylight games for the playoffs. It sure has been nice the last 3 weeks! I like it much better than the night games, that is for sure. yanr wrote in post #8986163 Excellent set of photos!

Great work and nice 'catch' on your part. I'm with the other who said crop off the bottom half of the first 3-4 shots. dave The AI servo has been spot on! I love the 1D2! It is so much better than the 50D I used for the first 2/3 of the season. If I have an OOF image, its because I messed up, not that the camera was too slow. Thank you, yanr & dave! tjaudet829 wrote in post #8985939 nice series Thank you! Eric

I have had good success with it so far! Eric
