Volleyball

In my opinion, volleyball is one of the most difficult sports to photograph. Typically, games are played in gyms where the ambient light is terrible. Add to that a fast paced game with a fast moving ball and I rest my case. When I was tasked to cover a game, I took the opportunity to travel to UCSD and took my lighting gear. Rimac Arena has a catwalk that allows you to mount strobes and cameras about 30+ feet above the court. I used this opportunity to capture all the images I needed for the entire season in one night. I also mounted a remote camera on the rail to get a different angle from above.
