Fun with Nikon D3s

I had a friend recently ask me to take some pictures of his daughter who plays basketball for Northampton.   So far this year, I have taken exactly ZERO pictures of basketball, mainly because the lighting in local high school gyms is pretty bad (and that’s being generous).   You’d think that since Liz made Varsity, I’d […]
