Nazareth Workout

Stretched out the 70-200 to shoot some informal roller hockey. Decent images although shooting through a chain-link fence can be a challenge. The trick is to be the right distance away from the fence, and at the longest focal length possible, to blur the fence links. Sometimes, to the point where they aren't even noticeable after a little post. Speaking of which, I shot this entire series in raw+jpeg and almost entirely in aperature priority. Over the next few weeks I'll post a few of the better shots with heavy emphasis on creating really vibrant colors, low noise, and exercising different sharpening techniques including high and low pass filters, unsharp mask, layer masks and whatever else I can come up with.
