Commack High School Boys Varsity Track vs. Sachem East
Written By Robert Williams
Finally caught up with the Commack boys track team in their first home meet. Nice win over Sachem East.
I threw in a few motion blur photos in this gallery. I usually try to get these in the longer races when I have plenty of time to try something different. I’m shooting at 1/25 sec and panning as the runners go by the grandstand. I try to pick a spot with some color in the background so that will be blurred also. It’s not easy to do; you have to take a lot of shots to get the runner’s face relatively sharp and the rest of the image blurred, but it’s a cool effect when it works out.
