Steve Gallow - A Year in Photos

With this blog I have begun a journey to improve my photography skills. My goal is to take photos everyday, and post my favorite photo from that day on this blog. So far, I have learned a lot, and try to share my experiences. Many of you have made comments on the blog, via email, or when you see me in person. I really appreciate all of them. I learn a lot from each of you. I hope that you will join me in my journey, and help me along the way. I have so much to learn.

Week 37, Day 263, January 12, 2010, Box Out

I like this photo for the depth of field. The shooter is in focus, but you can still see some activity in the background. (Including a nice box out by my son.)

I'm liking the new camera. 3200 ISO is the way to go.

Lessons Learned:

I should have used the Servo focus tonight. I didn't, and there were more shots that were blurry. I'll return to it in the next game.

Photo details: Exposure time 1/250 sec, Aperture f/2.8, ISO 3200, Focal Length 70 mm, Lens Canon 70-200mm f2.8L USM, hand held.

Andrew said...: I like how the DoF makes the shot feel like the guy with the ball is REALLY focused on the game. Everything else just kind of blurs out, becomes less important.

And I'm impressed with how good that looks at 3200 ISO.; January 13, 2010 at 5:08 PM
