Photo by: Kyle Brown Megan Soncrant holds Sara Snow at the Owens Community College community day hosted by the Owens women's soccer team. |
Our
picture of the week was taken by the Outlook's assistant sports editor
Kyle Brown. This portrait does a great job showing what the women's
soccer Community Day was all about.
The exposure of the photo is a
good example of why overcast days are great for portraits, no flash was
needed to fill in shadow areas and a pleasing lighting pattern of
natural light falls on the faces. Kyle captured this photo with an
aperture of f/4.0 to give the background a nice softness and adding some
separation between subjects and environment. The ISO was set at 250
with a shutter speed of 1/800" to stop all action and produce the nice
crisp moment in time that we see.
Composition of the photo is
balanced by the portrait of the girls on the right and the team members
signing autographs back to the left. The arms of Megan Soncrant wrap
around Sara as she grasps her signed team photo, leading the eye to the
main subject first. The draped cloth in the background frames the
players very nicely and creates a strong triangular element to capture
viewers attention.
