Here are my favorites photos from Sunday.
This dog made me laugh. He was SO serious and only perked up slightly if someone gave him food. He seemed completely uninterested in everything going on around him.ISO 320, 98 mm, f/2.8, 1/4000
It was fun to be up high looking down on all the rowers coming off the boats. You could see them congratulating each other, talking about the race, etc.ISO 400, 140 mm, f/5, 1/1250
This was not the angle I was hoping to get of the rowers, but I liked the rowers and oars lined up nonetheless. I also liked all the bright colors on the boats and life vests. It would have been nice to have a circular polarizer to help get rid of the light reflection on the water.ISO 400, 200 mm, f/f, 1/1600
You Really captured the 'SPIRIT' of Bandito by converting to B/W. The legs/feet in the background help to tell the story of an otherwise un-interested bulldog! A cool sequence might include showing how he perked up when a treat came his way, and then went back to being totally bored.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the angle and MOMENT of the 'celebration'. The angle DOES add dimension and interest to the scene.
You WERE able to get in close to the boat. WOW. The texture, diagonal lines and values of the water work to add contrast and unify the color, movement, shapes and lines of the paddlers/boat.
