I'm blown away by the wonderful clarity and excellent details in this action shot. Everything is just perfect, composition and exposure. Keeping in mind that it's a moving object you're dealing with, makes it even more impressive! Congratulations on your POTD! We'll probably see this image again! #10028526

Heather K. McFarland March 08, 2012

Thanks so much everyone and BP! I used Aperture priorty for shutter and I use my 3D focus tracking mode with Lock on and Continuous focus mode for the shot Meghan! #10028552

Meghan Gonski March 08, 2012

um I sort of meant which of center-weighted, evaluative or partial metering mode did you use #10029264

Heather K. McFarland March 09, 2012

Sorry Meghan. That would be - 3D Color matrix metering II with the D300. Or full evaluative I guess. No spot or center weighted if thats what you mean!! #10030612

Meghan Gonski March 09, 2012

yup awesome that's what I guessed or centerweighed was my second.i always like to ask :) #10031033

Meghan Gonski March 09, 2012

oh also forgot to ask, does this have a tiny bit HDR applied to it? #10031036

Richard D. Love March 19, 2012

Congratulations, Heather. Great timing and effects!

Rick #10044659

Heather K. McFarland March 20, 2012

Yes it does have a bit of HDR Meghan. I did a psuedo HDR using one image and Photomatix software. #10046364
