Re: Roller Hockey Training

A question rather than a comment.
Because there are a lot of lines of different colours on the floor of different colours and the floor itself is a strongish colour, do you think that converting them to B & W help focus our attention on the action; i.e. taking the colour out as an element in the picture?
Re: Roller Hockey Training
Geoff? Who is this Geoff you speak of :)
I have converted the first couple to black and white.
What do you think?

I think that works. But, on the basis of being unable to get a name correct, who wants to take my view on anything !?
Re: Roller Hockey Training
Mine set in a long time ago!
I think I prefer the B&W versions. As you suggested, it takes away the attention away from the orange rink floor, green doors, and multi-coloured lines. Not the best colour combination for a sports hall...
In terms of the noise, I was shooting at 1/320, ISO6400 and between f/4 and f/5.6 depending on the focal length.
Short of splashing out lots of money on a better lens, anything I could do to reduce the noise given the indoor setting?
Thanks
Glen (or Geoff if it makes things simpler :) )
Re: Roller Hockey Training
I have to confess to not noticing the noise until you mentioned it.
As Colin has often written, we tend to make an awful lot of noise about noise, as if it was intrinsically something evil to be avoided at all costs. In a case like this, I think it can add to that feeling of 'grittiness'.
