    Girls Varsity BB from the Greenwood Classic

    Covered 3 games of this tournament which is one of the best holiday tournaments in the state. 4 top 10 teams involved (including the current #1) and almost all good action. Some of the early round games were a bit sloppy but it ramped up rapidly from there. Here's a couple from the local team.

    ISO 640
    SS 1/250
    f2.8
    Center Weighted Metering
    Spot Autofocus
    Sunpak 383s at the top of the first tier stands off of each corner of the court at 1/2 power and aimed to cross above the free throw circle. Fired with Elinchrom Skyports.

    The reflections off the floor make patterns on the wall that look more like water reflections in a swimming pool!

    I like that second shot too, the attacker standing on the defender's foot is a great detail.

    Thanks folks! That second shot really conveys the player, she is very intense and a real competitor. The floor was recently refinished and extremely shiny. That is not one of my favorite gyms to shoot in mainly because of all the green and the lighting is kind of scattered.
