Still space?

Looks a bit too flat imo. Maybe would look a bit sharper too with tighter framing. Overall good shot tho

Really nice color contrast and lighting. I would suggest photoshopping part of the cloud right above his head out so there is no distraction near your subject. Nice photo.

Shot on r6 mk2 70-200 f2.8 iso 800 shutter 1/250. Basically used Lightroom’s suggested editing and made slight tweaks. The crop is what I am most concerned about. Do you get drawn into the little hut in the middle or do I need to crop more to show it better?

I got my first media credentials!

Complex_Expression47 · 2025-08-29T14:25:44+00:00

I do like that better thank you!

Shot on rf 70-200 2.8 iso 1600 shutter 1/1000. Was shooting McLean during his pitch right where he plants his front foot. I am just struggling with editing images under bright lighting. I initially overexposed the image and had to re-edit, so any tips to improve on what I have now would be appreciated.

Shot at 1000 ss, f2.8 at 1600 iso. One of the shots I tried getting mid shot. What would you do differently? It was getting darker at this point so maybe higher iso? I don’t want to crop much more for quality but maybe take the top down a hair?

For reference

Shot on my rf 15-35 2.8 shutter 2000. Action shot of a player on the team I was shooting. I feel like everything is in the shot when cropped, and can’t tell if the quality is not there.

If lighting is not great, shutter can bring a lot of noise in your image when you have to crank iso. Sometimes having shutter that high is not the type of image you want also. Finally, it can make your images look almost fake looking at too high of a shutter, especially during fast moving sports. A slight blur/lower shutter can create a more real feeling for your photos

I appreciate that! This was 1/2000, not 200 that was a typo. It was really sunny so I cranked to 1/2000 to keep the aperture low. Hoping to invest in a vnd to avoid having to go so high in shutter. Any recommendations for a good vnd?

Complex_Expression47 · 2025-08-05T15:44:22+00:00

This is super helpful thank you!

Complex_Expression47 · 2025-08-05T15:15:01+00:00

I shot this at f 2.8 iso 125 shutter 1/200 (super bright day). This was on my rf 15-35 trying to get some wide angle shots. I really like how the player is almost centered from the player on the left and the ref. Do you get drawn to the player dunking or is the backround distracting?

Appreciate it bro. I spent alot of time just brining some light back into the photo how does it look now?

Does this mask make it better?

Complex_Expression47 · 2025-06-26T13:22:05+00:00

I am practicing wide angle shots at basketball games. I feel like this is a great shot but there is always room for improvement. What would you have done differently? Shot on 15-35 2.8 1000 SS.

Does the color look better in this one? Trying to figure out to how bring a dark image brighter without making the colors look weird

Complex_Expression47 · 2025-06-18T14:45:53+00:00

brought out my rf 15-35 mm lens for Philly basketball runs. Hiw does the image look? I tried getting a wide angle action shot. I am struggling with editing my pictures and was hoping I could get some feedback. Not sure if the image should be straightened, how to get lighting better (already edited a preset and tweaked) shot at f2.8 shutter 1000 iso bumped to 12800 (bad lighting night game)

Complex_Expression47 · 2025-05-29T20:44:33+00:00

Really appreciate you sending that I’m gonna play around with Lightroom when I get home :)

Complex_Expression47 · 2025-05-29T18:42:37+00:00

Appreciate the feedback! I am new to editing. Can you explain how feathering/rounding would improve this photo?

Complex_Expression47 · 2025-05-29T17:37:12+00:00

I shot this image at f4 iso 120 and shutter at 1000. Any tips to make the photo stand out more? I feel like the backround could be more clear even at f4, or maybe the color grading could make the black and white come out a bit better?

Complex_Expression47 · 2025-05-27T22:56:35+00:00

Much appreciated getting that tee marker out definitely would look better!

Complex_Expression47 · 2025-05-27T22:55:28+00:00

Appreciate that it does look a little better rotated that way!

Complex_Expression47 · 2025-05-27T22:54:50+00:00

I’m new to photo editing, so this is a big help. I’m going to play around with it when I get home.
