During Asheboro's JV football game I was shooting some extra shots of people in the stands and the players themselves. For this image I shot at f/2.8, ISO 800 with a shutter speed of around 250 (?? it was on automatic so im not exactly sure). I did not use the flash for this image.

EQUIPMENT:
Nikon N80

24-85mm
Monopod
285 Flash
Light Stand
Kodak 400 35mm film

PROCESS:
I had been wanting to photograph people swimming at the Y for a while. I went about a week before I shot this image but there wasn't enough light coming through the windows on the right, because the sun was setting the opposite directions. So, after figuring out that I needed to shoot around 10am I went back and photographed the kids during their swim lesson. I didn't use my flash for this photograph because the natural light coming through the windows was enough. I don't remember the shutter speed but I only shot at f/2.8.

PROCESS:
During Small Format lab we practiced using the 300mm lenses for the first time. Our goal was to get a good action shot, including the person's face and the ball right infront of their hands. Timing was everything and motor drive really helped!
