Roller Derby - 11-20-2011, 10:02 PM

Critique: CC:

I went to the Roller Derby last night at Dallas Fair Park. This was shot at ISO 3200, f/3.3, 1/500sec with my D700 and 70-200 on continuous.

This was my first attempt at sports. CC please! I need all the help that I can get.

Roller Derbies are fun to shoot (IMO). Remember, when shooting sports, shoot tight and then crop tighter. You have a lot of in all your shots but especially the first two. I think #1 is your strongest of the 3 but definitely needs a tighter crop and horizon correction.
