WOW... fantastic action! Would you send me some info on your equipment and settings used? I know it's the master behind the shutter but I would be interested to know what equipment the master uses! Thanks...

Great pictures. I love the facial expressions. I'm also interested in what equipment and settings you used.

canon 30d + 70-200 2.8
nikon d2hs + 28-70 2.8

shot in Aperture priority at f2.8, iso 1000 on the canon and 1250-1600 on the nikon (i was using auto iso)

ss-s of at least 1/500

some shot in RAW & some jpg

WB was a disaster, worse on the nikon but repairable on the RAW shots, most of the jpgs are prob throw aways...
I need to manually set WB from now on and plan on getting a whibal card to do it
