Re: Manhattan Photos

I can't believe how many ball compression shots you have. How many shots
did you take to get this "best of" collection?
I would have to check, maybe 500 total, although 250 of those were of the
Cuervo/Bud Light/Lift Off/Crocs/AVP Girls.

What equipment do you shoot with?
Nikon D200/70-200 f2.8

What's your secret?
I do my best to keep the shutter as slow as possible. 1/250th-1400th or so.
Either with a polarizer or ND. It has the downside of introducing camera
shake, picking up player movement, and also leaves the background in more
focus than you want if you stop down. Watch the net with one eye, and the
defensive player with the other. The D200 isn't fast enough to have any
luck with machine-gunning (I have never tried with an 8+ FPS camera, it may
work better) so I try to guess right on the first shot.
