Tour de CA_Lance Armstrong
This past weekend was the Tour de California leg that went past our little town. Having never shot action before, I was in for a huge shock as to how difficult it was. I was only 10 feet from the action, and thus my shots were slightly out of focus! LOL, I just kept firing away, because it was so exhilarating to see these professionals fly by at such high speeds. It was over in a second, so could not adjust my settings:
Canon 50D
lens = EF 17-40mm
ISO 400
f/ 10.0
1/500 speed
Subject distance: 3.7 m
I decided to add a filter because I was not thrilled with the lack of focus. But thought is was fun that I captured Lance Armstrong, so had to post!
