Frank Kendralla > 7.31.08 This image was taken during the Bridgestone Invitational in Akron Ohio. [FedEx Cup]. I was amazed how the bridge reflected in the water.

Frank Kendralla > 7.28.08 Another image from the Polo fields. Played under lights on dirt and grass mixture. The one rider told me the Darlington Polo Gronds is the oldest polo field still in use in the United States. Wow! In my backyard. It must be one of the best kept secrets. :-) I converted it to B&W to give it an older look to illustrate the age of the field.

Frank Kendralla > 7.27.08 Another image from the Polo Grounds. I attempted different shutter speeds for the effect. This is one of the better images. I would have liked to have more blur in the background and more of the rider's polo 'stick' in the image.

Frank Kendralla > My first attempt at shooting a polo match. I have other images in my polo gallery from the shoot. It was a lot of fun. The dust was very thick making it difficult at times to obtain a sharp image. The sun was going down fast and my later shots are not as sharp. Darlington Polo Grounds in Darlington, PA

Frank Kendralla > Dangerous profession. We had a few trees cut down and this is one of the 'shorter' trees cut. A little too risky for my blood.

Frank Kendralla > 7.15.08 The combination of the strong color in the drums and around the drummer plus the contrasting silhouette from the guitarist presented a great opportunity for a picture.

Frank Kendralla > 7.14.08 Another image from the weekend's youth events. This was an experiment to create a very unique glow directly from the camera. No PP other than a slight crop. I have been experimenting more with shooting portrait versus landscape. It seems to create an interesting look.

Frank Kendralla > 7.13.08 From a youth event I shot over the weekend. The group "The Last Epic" played for the youth. I applied a B&W preset in Lightroom to come up with this effect. The light was very challenging and I timed the shot when the lights passed on the right side of the guitarist to create this dimensional shot.

Frank Kendralla > 7.12.08 One of many low light captures from a youth event I shot at our church. Victory Family Church in Cranberry Twp, PA. I was walking back to my car with both cameras in hand and I saw this great image developing. My D200's card was full and was in my left hand. All I could do was lift my D50 [with the 50mm f/1.8] to my eye and shoot. I couldn't steady the camera but I didn't want to miss the shot. I loved the shadows and the mood that was presented in the shot.

Dangerous profession. We had a few trees cut down and this is one of the 'shorter' trees cut. A little too risky for my blood.
