Notice to Photographers:
OMG do I need practice in the gym... with my camera... half of these not in focus...
first of all in the KM gym... you have to set your white balance against that white
on the bleachers... or the water fountain... this eliminates the YELLOW lights...
Then find a place and focus in on the backboard or foul line and hold the focus button
on your camera... otherwise wait till regular season starts and find a good place up in the
stands.... especially if your using a f1.8 fixed 85 mm lens... you can play around more with
a f2.8 200 mm lens.... don't use any thing less or you will need a flash.... all the below were
taken without a flash... notice no yellow lights either... I do know how to set the white balance
at KM... thanks to a tip from Sherri Boyer of Tahoma... now if I can only get my focus down..
