I would like suggestions on how to best crop/frame this image. I am a definite rookie and this and his is my 1st attempt at sports shots with my first dslr. Any other ideas for improvement would also be appreciated.



d90 50mm 1.8 1/750 ISO1000

Welcome to DPS! This section of the sight doesn't get as much traffic as some of the other sections, so it can take some time to get a response.

For me, a crop just to the right of #11's arm makes sense. That would turn it into more of a portrait crop, which suits my eye for this photo. And since there's no way to crop it so that some players aren't partially in the frame, I wouldn't worry about doing so with a crop.

Indoor sports is hard, and you're off to a good start.

I have a D90 - don't be afraid to use a high ISO (up to at least 3200) to get a faster shutter, if needed to stop the action. As long as the shot isn't underexposed, any noise should be minor.

My 2 cents.

One possible crop.
