hey everybody...
here is a set i put together of a down hill race i attended on sunday.
this was the first time i had ever tried any kind of sport with movement (usually it;s just my 5yo's baseball games...lol).
i know these are pretty bunk, but would like to improve future shoots like this.
i tried it on the sports setting at first, but everything came out rotten...everything was blurred.
so knowing what little i know about photography, i figured i would do trial and error with manual settings...so i played with ap and speed, and think i came up with decent combinations. it;s nice that the display gives you some idea of how to compensate for lighting...this was great cuz the sun was in and out of the clouds all afternoon, and we were in the woods.
anyone have any advice for shooting action in the woods?...i plan on attending more of these this summer.
shot with D40 with 18-55kit, manual settings (i can get exif if ya want), no flash.
i know some of the highlights are blown out...i had to play a bit in pshop, as the images were a bit dark.
thanks everybody!
