All outtakes I considered from the same assignment.

My entry and also my very first "6"


One of the outtakes, although it showed her off the ground, her arm blocked her face


Another choice, full body air again, but once again I lost the face.

I was fortunate to have a wide variety of shots to choose from, and this is just a few. My daughter had a championship meet the day before the challenge ended. I have been luck enough to shoot the girls all season, so I knew where to be and who to look at for a good entry!

Matt, I gave your submission a "10". I would have also given a "10" to .

I gave your entry a 6, would have been a little higher, but I couldn't keep from seeing the green shirted boy in the background causing a distraction. One thing I always consider in my sports shots to submit to my editors is the backgrounds and the horizons.

I think out of the outtakes you made the right choice.

Thanks, I liked several of them, but in reality it came down to. I made a decision on the day I took them on what to submit. Pulled that one original off the card and submitted it for verification. My download method doesn't meet with DPC criteria, so when I decide to enter a challenge, I have to manually pull the original off the card before formatting or my original download won't pass validation because I use Nikon transfer to download.

Thanks Matt for the feedback. I was set up with a clean background and the girl showed up and started stretching just I was about to get them coming around the corner. I took a series of shots and this was the best action and focus of all I got, but she was the 'most' in the scene'....next time, right!?

I thought yours would ribbon. There was a lot of emotion/drama/action in that shot

In pro sports backgrounds are easy, in high school and lower college, or semi pro it's always tough. Sometimes you can't do anything about it. Other times, well you can only do so much. So yeah, next time. I shoot in one semi pro field that the whole outer wall is full of advertisements, you can't get away from distracting backgrounds, the results piss me off, but not a thing I can do about it, but shoot as tight as possible.

Not a true outtake because it was a day early, but I thought it was kinda funny.

Matt, I gave your entry an 8......I think I would have given a 10, as always your stuff is amazing and If I lived closer to you I would beg to tag along for a week!

Unfortunately this event was after the challenge, but nonetheless, its one of my favourite pics recently....

Entry:

That I was very happy with.

An outtake:


Two that show no action, but I thought were marginally interesting:

I thought this would be dnmc'd instantly for no action.

Thanks, as I said earlier, after I submitted I found other images I liked better, but had already formatted my card, so the original was to be lost. I already have a DQ learning that Nikon transfer messes with the EXIF so I just took the one I planned to enter on my first run through, brought it out on it's own to validate and formatted the card.

I could use someone to carry gear and would gladly exchange training for it. :D Maybe you thought about moving?
