It’s wake-boarding season again, with the water warming up and wave free days popping up. I decided to bring out my new Canon 7d to give it a test. After all, it was supposed to compliment my 5d mk II by excelling at action shots. I was not disappointed. The 7d’s burst mode sounds like a machine going off in comparison to the 5d mk II. On top of that it’s more complex focusing system, with far more focusing points, make holding focus on a moving target a breeze. To illustrate the action capabilities of the 7d, I decided to upload the best photo of the day, next to a couple falls that were captured brilliantly.
I used one exposure shot in RAW to create this HDR image. As there was so much white in the scene, between the boats’ wakes and the clouds in the background I had to bump up the exposure by one stop to expose Soniko correctly. In post processing I adjusted the RAW photo to provide exposures at -1, +1, and +3. These were then combined in Photomatix and tweaked in Photoshop.

you are going to LOVE the burst mode on your camera!!
How did you make Soniko’s fat look like muscle? Is that a new trick on the camera?
I was wondering the same thing… must be a trick of the light. Sort of like a mirage.
I’m not fat. I’m just big boned my mom says I’ll grow out of it. :). You however can not grow out of those looks.
didn’t your fat ass break your board?
…that’s the second board he’s broken too.
That’s a super fun shot!
