High school hockey: Northfield vs. Harwood, 1/19/2008

2008.01.20

















Auto white balance sort of worked... but this does make it look like Night of the Living Dead.

If things moved at the speed of the Zamboni... I would have clearer images.

This is how to get good photos at a hockey game: A ladder to shoot from over the glass, and a fast (lots of $$) telephoto lens.

My camera with the Tamron 70x300 telephoto lens. It's far from ideal for shooting sports indoors but the price was right.

This was something of a camera test. There's more about it here....that describes the photographic compromises (sensitive camera with slow telephoto lens) that were made taking these images. They actually look better in this size because the scaling down is an effective noise reduction technique.
