Sports Photography by George Ross

Almost every image you see in both my web site and in this blog will be shot at a focal length between 200mm and 400mm with the aperture wide-open to produce a short depth-of-field. However, every now and then it is time for something completely different and when I am in one of those moods I reach for my 10mm to 20mm zoom but almost always use it at 10mm. In these images from the 2010 Little Compton 4.8 mile road race you will see the 10mm put to work. These shots have been post-processed for dramatic effect but the trick to these shots is to get very close to the athletes and to use unusual angles.

Hope you enjoy.
