This is a series of photos I took of my son this weekend. I shot them with a Canon XSi and 50mm 1.8 lens. I was shooting at ISO 1600 and 1/320 shutter speed. This was as fast as I could get as I was already a little on the dark side.

Anyway, the whole reason I bought the XSi was because I hated not being able to take decent shots of my boys with my point and shoot. I am so happy that I finally have some decent shots to look at and remember! :barb

They're nothing like the great shots I see in here but man, what an improvement for me. Thanks for taking a look...I just had to share!

    You have some great action - crop in tighter on them is my tip.

    And welcome, to the very slippery slope of sports (gear buying) shooting! mwink.gif

    Thanks
    MDalby, ASkip, Ann,

    Thanks for looking and commenting. I appreciate you taking the time!

    ASkip - Too funny. You're on the money there...rolleyes1.gif

    Ann - Good advice. I'll crop tighter. That's a whole other mountain...Photoshop (Elements) for me.
