the other end of the spectrum is the high key. i think i got this one just right. this actually made my back quite sore. lighting is a combination of the very quirky sunshine and exposure adjustment. sooc, of course, as per the challenge. i don't know where the bluish tint of the background came from but i'm pretty sure the backdrop was white.
as an update, this was a fly ball that partner caught barehanded during a blue jays-orioles game in toronto in september 2002. beau @losthorizon has asked in the previous post if i remember who hit the ball, so i had to ask partner who is an avid toronto blue jays fan. the hitter's name was "homer bush", one of the lesser known player of the club at the time. the dark spot on the right half of the ball was the spot where the bat made contact with the ball.
@jsw0109 - those baseballs are nasty sonamaguns when they hit you though. i was never a good catcher so i just duck when one would come my way. thank you for the generous fav. much appreciated as always, jeff.
Well done! Love the high key and minimalism. Now that I know the bat made that spot- ouch!! Although not planned- I really like the blue tint- it helps the ball to stand out.
Awesome capture. Great composition, lighting and detail. I've had the blue tint too a few times while using a white painted section of wood inside a small bow window. Odd how that happens. Maybe something to do with the light spectrum passing and reflecting through the window?
