With the Olympics going on this weeks challenge was sports to fit the theme. Photographing sports is always its own monster as you have to catch the moment in a subject that tends to keep you on your toes to catch everything. Between zip lines, cars, and horses we had a bit of a mix this week as you guys thought out of the box.

Winners this week were chosen by Roy and our Patreon supporters.  Find out more about becoming a Patreon member and the exclusive benefits at http://photorec.tv/support/.

You can find all the past challenges on the PRTV page along with next week’s Patreon chosen challenge #prtv_outofplace. Find something that doesn’t fit, something out of place with its environment, and take your shot! To enter post your photos on Instagram before noon next Friday with the tags #prtv and #prtv_outofplace.

Roy's Winner:

I like using the silhouette and sun for a monochrome shot. Using the rule of thirds while dropping low you get a lot of foreground draw focus to your subject and bokeh.

Roy's Honorable Mentions:

One nice thing about sports is you get to practice your panning photography. Erwin was a nice crisp shot using a slower speed while not blurring out the background to the point you can’t tell what's going on in the scene.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BJTU6gaDg-5/Justin has a nice sports shot of a sailing practice run. The nice thing to keep in mind for photos like these is the boat in the background balances the photos interest. Otherwise you’d have one boat and a lot of negative space in the background. https://www.instagram.com/p/BJRUcSrAbxx/
