Considering how many sport pictures I have taken in the last 10 years, this was the first time I actually took individual pictures of the players! I mentioned to Mitchell that I would like to try, so he approached his team and they gave me 10 minutes before they needed to warm up for their game! So that’s what I did, brought my Nikon and my black sheet backdrop and scrambled to get a few pictures in before they had to run. Two of them held the sheet for me and I was able to take pictures of 7 members of the team, we were missing two as they were injured and didn’t have their uniforms that day but I am hoping to get them before the next game. Thank goodness for Adobe Lightroom as I had to darken the backdrop, crop out hands and zoom in, but I was happy with how they turned out. I’m so grateful for these boys, the Norkam Junior Boys Basketball players who have played their hearts out over the years….it was fun to capture “basketball” attitude!

GRADUATION TRIBUTE
I wanted to design a page tribute to my daughter Rebecca who graduated from Norkam Secondary School this year. She has always loved sports through high school and has played volleyball, basketball and rugby just about every year. I’m proud of how hard she has worked and how she has also kept her grades up at the same time!! She’s (one of!) my sporty girl!!
I use Lightroom 5 to organize my pictures and then this page was designed in Adobe Photoshop CC using extractions, blending techniques, saturation levels and reflections. I also used Jana Morton’s Blending Techniques, Katie Pertiet’s Star glows and Anna Aspnes Artplay Saffron Villa brushes.
It was good to get back into designing….. for my Rebecca!!
