Keep an open eye! Always always be on the look out for something else. The photo below was taken while I was on assignment to shoot a high school football game. I had been to this stadium before and noticed that the sun set just to the left side of the home stands. I had wanted to capture a sunset photo before but could never get an interesting subject or the sunset just did not pan out. The background was just to blah or had to many distracting elements. On this night however the sunset was spectacular so I quickly scanned the scene to find an angle that the composition worked and at the same time had an interesting subject. I saw the drill team lined up and thought this could work. It did! Tomorrow evening I host my first photo workshop at the framers gallery in downtown Georgetown. It should be a good time and I hope to be able to do more in the future. So if you missed this one keep your ears open because we will probably do it again soon.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I sure do miss the Texas sky and BBQ.
Nice shot!
Jason, awesome shot!!!!
Stunning skies, the processing is extra special on this one.
thanks everyone, Processing was an HDR with the drill team layer masked. the HDR effect on them was too much so used one of the single exposures of the drill team and blended and laeyr masked this ontop of the HDR image.
excellent capture of something we have all seen and can relate to, but those shots were always "snapshots" and not executed as well as you have here... eye catcher...
Beautiful capture! I'm with McNally when he says every photo should include a ballerina, but these girls just do as fine :-)
