Western Michigan hosted Central Michigan last night. WMU kept it close for a half, but CMU started hitting every look they got and pulled away for a 77-53 win.

Here are a few shots. Critique always welcome. :bow

    Colors look great in these. I really like #6. Question - what did you do for noise reduction?

    Thanks Mike,

    I was shooting with my D700, 70-200 AFS f2.8, ISO 4000, Auto WB.
    I used both Imagenomic Noiseware Professional, and Picturecode NoiseNinja.


    Regards,
    John Walker

    Thanks Frank. I attribute it all to good equipment...and did't anyone ever tell you not to play with sharp objects? rolleyes1.gif

    Some nice images. I gotta say there are some instances you think a foul is obvious yet it's not called. Then there's what would be a non-call in most circumstances and you'd think a crime had been committed. Go figure lol3.gif

    I was watching the Avs game the other night. There was very clearly an offside situation that wasn't called. The player who was off, reached back for the puck, pulled it to him and scored a goal. As a referee/linesman, you never want your mistake to result in an unfair advantage.
