DSC_5201

Exposure: 0.006 sec (1/160)
Aperture: f/5.6
Focal Length: 200 mm
ISO Speed: 100
Exposure Bias: 0/6 EV

Hello everyone,
I was looking though some of my older pictures and I saw this one that I took this last september. I took it prior to my joining dps, so I now see many things I could improve on (especially after reading Jim's great tutorial). I realize now that I should have bumped up my ISO to get a faster shutter speed. However, my main question involves the colour. I accidentally had the camera set to saturate the colours, and although I desaturated it a bit PP, does it still look off? I would also appreciate any other comments or suggestions, so the next time I make it on the field again I can use what I have learned.
Thanks

Default added photos to shooting sports tutorial

No, the colors don't look off, just maybe a little flat, you could bump up the contrast a bit, otherwise, it's a nice portrait of the player. I went back into the shooting sports tutorial and added some photos to go along with the story.
