May 19, 2009 - Footware (107)

As luck would have it, the season is almost over, but we had to buy my son new cleats.

The cleats are black and white and the background was white, but my white balance was a little off, so I converted the photo to b/w and masked to reveal the red lacing.

Camera Data: Sony A350
Lens: Tamron 70-200 f/2.8 Macro
Shutter Speed: 1/4 second
Aperture: f/11
ISO: 100

  1. Wonderful picture. It just screams baseball. But no dirt or grass on the cleats - did you wash them first?? LOL

  4. I like the simplicity of this and I like that I can at long last visit and comment on your photos, using IE7 I got error messages for weeks. I love the star shots too and hope to see more.

  5. It is a wonderful photo . . . a great composition. I always hated it when my children wore something out right before the end of a sports season.

  6. Classic sports photo! Li really like the way you've reduced it to just three colors. It makes the red stitching pop.

  7. Great job on this. Clever to use selective color that way.

    Too bad I don't live closer to you, I've got a nearly new pair of size 4 cleats I could pass on to you! ;-)
