Last Renegade Rollergirls bout for 2007

The Renegade Rollergirls of Oregon had their last bout of 2007 Saturday night. All told it went well with the Wicked Pussycats walking (well, skating) away with the win. As usual it was exciting to shoot, though substantially more subdued than shooting the bloodbath that was the Arizona game…

I’ve been the League Photographer for awhile now and it’s a lot of fun. They are an incredible group of women and deserve community support, no doubt about it. That being said, it was the highlight of my evening last night to have Lance Hardy Photography included in the MC sponsor list and hear a heart felt thank you to Mr. LANCY HARDY. Twice. Alright girls, you’re going to say it was a typo, but I’m gonna get you for it…   = )

Playing with new toys

So Randy let me play with his toys that night – four remote flash units firing in sync. I’m not a big fan of the Midtown because it’s dark as a cave in there, so I was interested in playing with this method and comparing to my typical high ISO and 550EX flash. The results (below) are really interesting and I’m still trying to decide if I like it. At the moment I’m still seeing “video capture still” as opposed to “single still image” – at least that’s what it reminds me of. It’s got a cool vibe, but I’m not sure I’m digging it for an entire bout. I am inspired though to experiment further.
