4th Street Retro Rollers VS Terminal Island Tootsies
The majority of these were shot on a Canon 50D, a 24-70mm L Series Lens and a 580 EX II strobe. I'll usually shoot at 1/250 - 1/320 of a second to stop this type of action. The 50D is bad with high ISO so I stopped at ISO 400. I use a pocket wizard remote setup to trigger strobes. Due to security and mobility, I had my friend, Sean, run around with only one strobe either camera left or camera right. We ended up getting really close and I ran the stobe at 1/8 to 1/4 power. These are my top 20.

This was after halftime and I wanted to do something different. I like to shoot trails at around 8/10 of a second and use second shutter flash to freeze the subject right before the shutter closes. The flash setting was way to bright for the long shutter speed, so I ran with an f-stop of about 8-9. It's easier to start dailing your f-stop down than it is to yell to your lighting guy to change the storbe settings.
