photos to inspire

Summer term not only brings cricket, but also the athletics season gets underway. So this boy is practicing the Triple Jump. For this shot I used my Sony a350 and Sony 70-300 mm lens but I really needed to increase the ISO to get a good combination of aperture and shutter speed. Shutter speed to make sure there is minimal movement blur, and aperture to allow some leeway on focussing, particularly for the head-on shots I took. See more on flickr (eventually) here. DSC00324
