    High School Track

    Nothing special today just a few random shots from a high school track meet I covered yesterday evening.

    A track meet can keep you hopping. Good luck, looking forward to seeing some of you results.

    Very nice series. #1 and #4 catches my eye. Your right about how it keeps you hopping, so many things going on at the same time.

    That Fleming county hurdler, just clearing the hurdle, great timing!
    His face looks soft though, and the sole of his shoe and fist look sharp.
    Is that just DoF at f/4.5 ?
    I wouldn't have thought it was movement at 1/2500.

    The hurdle on them looks sharper on all three pictures than the runners maybe? Looks to me like just a height issue like I had with volleyball going up and down vertically. It gives me something to watch for when I go try and get some shots myself.
