Challenge: Sports II (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Nikon D70
Location: 885skatepark.com
Date: Jul 9, 2005
Aperture: f/4.5
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/100'ish

First attempt at shooting indoor. Surprisingly, you can go really slow with the shutter speed -- count on the flash to freeze the action no problem at all.

resize for web, curves, brightness/contrast adjustment, little USM, put a little border around her...done.

Crop more of the warehouse / side edges to focus in more on the skater.

This looks like a hard place to get a great picture without a bunch of lights. Nice stop action.

crooked, get that flash off your camera and put is to your left like 10 ft or something, good exposure, composition is too loose and centered, get closer.

I think the picture would be nicer if you cropped, zoomed in, or moved closer.

Nice action, dof, lighting and color. Perhaps just cropping out the person in the air leaving the rooflight out and even the spectator might have made a gr8 shot. None the less, -7-

Too busy with the background. It detracts from the subject and the flash made the skater look like he's never seen sun.

I really like this shot but it may have looked better if the ceiling was completely horizontal.
