HDR Soccer Star by kwind

HDR Soccer Star

It's been a day of sports.... first, a two hour swim practice for both kids starting at 5:45am which included a visit/swim with an Olympian. Then a one hour soccer game for my son followed by an hour & a half bike ride through trails with friends. I'm tired from driving everyone back and forth to all these events. Thought I'd try the HDR effect for something different.
Interesting take. Was this just one shot, not bracketed?

@archaeofrog I just used an aperture effect called HDR applied to a single shot.

perfect POV!!!
I need to push myself and learn to do action shots better...I took my grandson at a cross country race today, but nothing really turned out like I wanted...for sure nothing post worthy!

Ugh, feel for you and your day. Mine started at 5:30 with opening invitational swim meet for high schooler, a ridiculous 30 minute line to get into meet which meant I missed her first even and then it ran late! It was so chaotic I didn't even attempt any photos!

I've got back to back soccer games and a football game today. Was looking on 365 for some inspiration for some new and different sports shots and love the angle in this shot.
