This was my first sports event I was asked to shoot as a favour.
The situation was a very fast moving game in low light which had me crying for a 24-70 2.8 :cry . The only lense that I had that was fast enough was the 50mm 1.4

Got a few good shots, but this one is by far the best...

    ShadowHawk - welcome to dgrin!

    Great capture, but have you thought about cropping it down to the main action (i.e., the guy in the air and possibly the defender? It looks like the picture could also use some post-processing to brighten it up a bit.

    glad you joined us and hope to see more.

    cheers,

    C.

    Yes I do have a crop at home (currently at work). Thanks for the tip for the post-process lightening. I'll give it a shot and post the outcome.
