had a ton of creative time, went into the store early and stayed right through the whole byob papercrafting night got a ton of upcoming class samples done, like this fun class coming up om may 1st… the date book came out sooooo yummy!!!! I had to sit across from melissa and watcher make these …. vomit i tell ya!! (thats what we tell each other when were sooo jealous we didnt make what the other did)
saturday was vjt’s soccer game, melissa let me borrow her phatty lens, to get some good shots!! They didn’t come out so bad… hard taking action shots… parda any tips??
and then sunday was matt’s first softball game, didn’t get any good shots.. good thing there is ALLL summer
overall, a gorgeous weekend… weather was PERFECT… making more anxious for that hot hot hot summer weather!!
Oh yeah, and crop in tight on the action…
Use fast shutter speeds (250+), follow the ball but look for action else where too, try to stay ahead of the action – anticipate. For soccer I shot on my knees, its a better angle then standing.
jenn, i’ve got some new layout ideas that i think i need to get approved by you and jayne …. {wink} haha
Hi Jenn. Psst. Tag you’re it. https://stampedbyhand.blogspot.com/2007/04/tagged-again.html
Good job with action shots. I feel action challenged most of the time too. Outside, at least, is your best bet. Try karate and basketball that will make you crazy. love the projects. Wish you weren’t so far away 🙁
