I had spent an hour taking photos at Bailey's footy game today, so I decided that I had fulfilled my challenge of taking a photo a day.
I've been using AI Servo and the high speed continuous shutter to capture action shots of our grandsons at their footy games and I also try to get other action shots by the other children in the team. I'm getting quite a lot of shots in focus and some passable action shots.
I was a bit disappointed to find out that I had cut the heads off the boys in this shot as the Beenleigh player is in mid-air about to go over the try line. The next shot was of him landing but its focus was a bit soft. I decided to make this my photo of the day as I had converted it to black and white, so I had fulfilled the prompt of Black. I uploaded it saying that it was a fun shot and a 'fail' for action. However, a couple of people from the CY365 gallery have commented that they like the shot precisely because the focus is on the feet where the action is. Just goes to show how differently people respond to a photograph. He did get the try and it was a great run all the way there.
