    Performers

    I was at the US Cross Nationals this weekend and they had various performers during the down time. I was playing with a canon fisheye on a 10D. What do you think? What would you do differently?

    Thanks

    I would have...

    I would have gotten closer, the backgrounds are way too distracting to capture the character of these characters.
    I look forward to seeing your 'Cross photos!

    Thanks for the suggestion. I have never used a wide angle lens let alone a fisheye, being use to a 70-300, I felt like I was right on top of them.
    With the background, I thought the sky was nice, probably because it had been gray all weekend, I didn't even realize all the people.
    Thanks again.
