Eye on the Puck [Winter Sports Snowboarding Pictures Etc]
Uploaded: January 24, 2008 11:58:30
135 f/2 lens.
Wide open, no cropping. I have others with better background blur, but I like how his skates and legs are out of focus. The movement of the puck and ice show that this was caught in the middle of a fall yet his eyes are still on that puck.
Exif: F Number: 2, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/400 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 1250, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 135.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS-1D Mark III
