there's another branch going to the left hidden by the camera. and it's actually a bit far from the water. the angle made it looks like there's water below.

Same here. It's a great shot, but the setup surely makes a body nervous. Well done, vinmunoz!

Snowflake photography, Canon 7D + EF 100mm 2.8L is usm + extension tubes + just some random stuff and tape.

Very nice! Do you shoot handhold or on a tripod?

Figured I might post this up for those that don't get over to the sports forums. And to represent us sports guys. Hope this is ok.

Einstein strobes with 11" long throw reflectors bounced from ceiling at 1/4 power.

1DIII with 16-35 II. The camera settings were 1/320, f/4, ISO 1600. I triggered the camera with PW III's. One gaffer taped to the magic arm and the other I was handholding. There was a cybersync transmitter in the hot shoe which then triggered the Einstein strobes. All mounted about 4ft above backboard. (Yes, everything was safety cabled.)

And a couple of the results.

I'm not a sports shooter so I have a question about the set-up. Why lower the strobes to 1/4 power and have to shoot at the higher ISO. Wouldn't it have been better to lower the ISO and shoot the strobes at full power? Or was the 1/4 power to enable the strobes to recharge faster?

maybe to not distract the player much? or to get a flavor of natural light?

This would be my guess. With just two lights that far away, the light would be very directional. lowering the power closer to ambient would allow the gym lights to add some fill.
