So when I showed up, I had to quickly scramble to find spots to place the two strobes - not in my normal set up spots.  2)  3) Always love a little glove to the face! This was mistakenly shot at 320, hence the brown ghosting on the right.  4)  5) Unsharp Mask on crop.  6)  CANON Mark 1D IV & 5D Mark III; 300/2.8L IS; 70-200/2.8L IS; 24-70 f/2.8L; 85/1.8; 50/1.4;1.4x; 580EX II;

I love the fact that my attention is drawn right away to the players....and not the ice (in so many other ice hockey pictures the ice or boards are blown out). G16

And overall I do agree that I would like the shadows on the face, or on #16's body, to not be there. But the Post-Pro is minimal. I only open the dozen or so that need adjustment or cropping in photoshop, Where as without strobes, I would import all to Lightroom and adjust colors, sharpness, etc. CANON Mark 1D IV & 5D Mark III; 300/2.8L IS; 70-200/2.8L IS; 24-70 f/2.8L; 85/1.8; 50/1.4;1.4x; 580EX II;

In the links you provided,photos are off in wt balance and the timing is off. Were your stobes directly pointing on ice, or bounced. Many rinks here have a white or silver finish...adding to the ambient and ability to bounce. I guess I like a more natural lighting feel, not heavy front lighting. How many stobes did you bring and tell us about your set-up. 1DX , 7D,16-35, 24-70 2.8II, 2.8L II, , 70-200 f2.8LII IS, 300 f2.8L IS, 500 f4 IS, 100-400L, Canon 100 2.8 macro, Canon 1.4X, 580ex, AB800X4
