These are great. Really fantastic. Love the treatment of B&W.
I hope the ball in the second shot is falling down, not coming towards him, else it could be rather painful LOL .
Thanks for sharing.

Yea it's falling. It's your standard "post-dunk" photo.

There are elinchroms set up but I'm shooting for the student publications and the universities official media services or AP usually uses those, so we don't really get to use them much. Hopefully they'll skip a game at some point though and I'll get a chance to use the strobes
