Edina Hornets vs. Blaine Bengals Varsity Game
I’ve finally finished working on the photos of this game and all have been uploaded to the website – ending up with 481 images from the roughly 2,100 I took. I took a little break from the Edina vs. Eden Prairie game to start working on these images since I was pretty excited about them – I think there are lots of good images from this game – both JV and Varsity.
After working on the Elk River and the Eden Prairie games – both teams which have all black uniforms, I was thrilled to see that the Blaine Bengals had some nice uniforms – speaking from a photographic standpoint of course, mainly light blue in color – which makes for better photos since they reflect a bit of light, more so than say an all black uniform does. Overall it made for some nice images. The Hornets white jerseys work out real well for images.
But I still thought the Bengals’ uniforms were kind of cool – was different to see the names of the players on the back of their jerseys and blue is my favorite color.
I took 2,110 images at the Varsity game and close to 1,000 of the JV game. I also think for this particular game I got an even number of photos of each team – sometimes that’s not always the case.
I’m trying to get them posted as quickly as I can but also don’t want to rush the process – which is a little time consuming and involves adjusting the white balance (sometimes), adding a little contrast, increasing the brightness, cropping and finally sharpening after converting from the Nikon RAW file format to .jpg format.
Once uploaded to my site I need to label the images in the gallery, put the names of the players on them and that’s it. So please bear with me while I work through these images. I of course encourage everyone to go buy some awesome photo prints of this game
I’ll go back to working on the Eden Prairie game photos after I finish the Hornets vs. Bengals photos – both Varsity and JV.
