Had shot images at Brockton High School previously. On this occasion I was assigned to shoot images of the cheerleaders. However, I turned quickly and captured this action image. Ironically, it was not planned and I am pleased with the action, composition, and lighting. By the way, I'm a big fan of Gary Fong's LightSphere for short money. Also, at this gymnasium I set the temperature to about 4200. Found the best results with an L-series 70mm-200mm even without IS. Think I am going grab the high-end 50mm f-1.2. Frankly, to shoot basketball, positioning is critical. It's best to be at the baseline, but watch out for the lead official.
