Photos from the CCM - MV game Sat night

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

Just thought I'd post some images from the game on Saturday, if anybody's interested:

The Marinators

Scarf waving was good though

Lewis in hot pursuit

You don't mess with the Heff.  Why?:

This is why:

Not having any luck scoring in the conventional method, Simon tries telepathically willing the ball to go into the goal

No luck.  Looks like it's back to shooting

Oh screw it, may as well just run the damn thing into goal

Oh shoot, forgot something...

quality shots well done

Amazing Quality, did u take these pics from your seat??
they look great.

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

Yeah, took them from my seat.  Bay 18, about 7 or 8 rows back I think (that's why Matty Simon's feet are cut off, because of the advertising boards just off the goal line)

What camera you using chief??

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

Canon 30D, Sigma 70-200 f/2.8 lens

 

[serious14]

f/2.8 you say??  Nice, nice.  Prefer a f/5.6 myself, but that's down to taste.

What shutter speeds on average where you using??

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

Why on earth would you choose a 5.6 if you can use a 2.8

Started off using about 1/1000, ISO 400.  Finished up on 1/500, ISO 1600 after the sun went down.

especially at night! unless of course you want the place to look like it's been shot with lampshades over the floodlights.

though what aperture do you get when you're taking the long lens shots?

Started off using about 1/1000, ISO 400.  Finished up on 1/500, ISO 1600 after the sun went down.

hasn't grained up so that's not bad.

'Cause I'm into crazy lighting effects and such.

Hmmmmm...... do we have a "your photo's thread" in Other Stuff??

Epic Photos Thread (NWS)

EDIT - we'd never have a "photo's thread", unless there was someone called photo who had a thread devoted to them. 



We need a grammar nazi emoticon. Maybe some bloke goosestepping out and thwacking errant posters with a dictionary...

 

[serious14]

Could just post a photo of you wielding a paddle??

P.S.  To counter the "why 5.6 over 2.8 at night" argument - I just set a longer exposure time and often shoot with a tripod.  I should clarify I only do this for landscape/architectural shots.
