Probobly my best shot of the year

 

[o hey tyler]

Here's one I took yesterday that I've taken a liking to. (5D, 1/2000s, 85mm, f/2.5, ISO 100)

The last Cribstone bridge in the world. About 15 minutes from my house. (5D, 1/250s, 35mm f/1.4L, f/5, ISO 50)

And this one, out camping by Lake Pemaquid. We had docks that went a ways out into the water that I laid down on to get this shot early on a foggy morning. (5D, 1/1000s, f/2.5, 85mm f/1.4, ISO 100)

I included shot settings as someone requested, however shot data is all circumstantial and depends on the light scenario. So the exif probably won't help anyone...

My first postever to the site! I'm having a lot of trouble picking my favorite picture Ihave taken 2011. So here it goes, I actually have two one from each sport Ishot even though I am so in love with so many these are the two I choose:
Baseball:

Football:

The pictures are only 72 pixel resolution, Sorry. I've had problems with theft of photos on sites before.

How long did you drag the shutter on this scene? The water looks great.

How did you manage to get that great black background? Clever positioning or post production?

Great pictures everyone! Neat idea for a thread.

I have 2 pictures, one is sports related:

Positioning and very bright light mostly, but a bit of burning was done to subdue the very subtle dark tones. This was shot early morning toward a group of leafy brush that was backlit. Some speckled sunlight was visible, but it was very dim and very subtle. This is almost as it looked sooc.
