Photo Competition #39 - Ends 20th December




Static balls, dropping balls, blurry balls, ball sports.


Rules..

See here for the general rules.

Also..

Posting two pictures is encouraged but only one pic can be an old photo (shot before 10/12/2009).

Photoshop is fine. Just remember, less is more.


*Thanks to all those that PM'ed me for ideas. Hopefully this is a good compromise.

I was going to set up something similar Andrew. Have to think up another approach

Feel free to give it a try. I'd be interested to see the results with the D3x's low light capabilities. Mine was a bit under exposed and the noise has come up a bit after fixing it. This shot had the nicest arc though.

Besides, I don't think it will matter. This topic seems to be a bit of a dud anyway.

I will have to use the D200 as my remote flash trigger hasn't turned up yet (don't you love back orders around Christmas) So I can't remotely trigger both Speedlights off camera on the D3s until I get it.

Still at least my RRS L-bracket turned up today so I can tripod mount the camera on the ball head and rails at last.

Just had a thought.... might see what the D3s will do with multi-exposure bracketing and no flash.

Hopefully this thread will get a few more pic's by Sunday.
