Tracking is super hard to do, even for the pros, so I wouldn't beat yourself up too much over it. I think these look pretty good, honestly.

The pros only make it look easy because they machine gun everything that goes by and pray the autofocus does the right thing. They probably throw away 90% of everything they shoot as soon as it's copied off the flash card. And then 5% of the remainder actually get processed.

Good pros don't create more editing and transferring work that slows them down under deadline.

Deadspin has a fantastic read about the iconic Brandi Chastain photo. quote:Chastain turned to face her teammates at midfield and, in one motion, tore off her uniform top to reveal the best set of abs since Linda Hamilton staved off the Terminator. She sank to her knees and let out an exultant cry that no one but she could hear.

So, I might be getting a chance to shoot a skateboarding event coming up. I used to skate so have a decent working knowledge or skateboarding, but I was curious if anyone has any first hand knowledge on shooting skateboarding contests.

The goofy faces are the best. I love it when you really nail feelings or just general weird expressions. I think that I might overexpose the pictures just a bit. How do they look at your screens?

Us the viewer for seeing the lumpy folds and sagging undergarments line with the impending promise of teabag time. And the bloke that is about to enjoy this time first hand. And the two people holding him knowing full and well they could be next. And the guy doing it because he would have to be comfortable putting his genitals on another persons face (hetero or not) in front of a crowd. 1 thousand words to this picture right here.

I look at those and immediately want to tell you to crop some of those in, but the more I look at them the more I really like the look of them as they are. I'm also trying my damndest to figure out how they got to that submission hold in the first picture

Haha that's awesome, I can't help but laugh every time I see one of those things, they just look so goofy. Having some 800mm reach would certainly be cool though. Definitely share some stuff if/when you use it!
