More Blurs at Practice

Last Tuesday as the numbers at practice dwindled the guys decided to play a box game which packs the action in a confined space due to a limited number of players. This was a good opportunity to get some nice blurred action shots and I think this one was my favorite of the night.

Be sure to check out the action page for galleries with more pictures in this, and the racquetball sets.

Blur Study - Racquetball

I went to the activities center to see what I could come up with and did some prolonged exposures of a couple of guys playing racquetball. I found some of these to look interesting when I inverted their colors and think I may do this with some other blur images because it gives it the look of an x-ray when there's an area where the subject overlaps that is darker and it is surrounded by lighter areas where the subject passed through.

These exposures range from 1/2 a second to 1 and 1/2 seconds at varying f stops.
