Default Rollergirl

I recently went to a local Roller Derby bout and tried out some action shots. The light level was low since it was indoors and my aperture is not the largest so I mainly worked on motion pans. Here is one of my favorites from the evening.

This looks prety decent for a very fast moving sport. You definitely get the feeling of movement and speed though I wish her face was just a tad more in focus so we could get a better glimpse of her emotion.

Default Gamma

I like it. It's a great shot. I'm not sure if the noise in the image is from scaling it down but composition wise (I guess), it's great. Again, I don't know if its because of scaling down but the gamma could be enhanced. To me you've done a wonderful job considering.
