I was very nervous about this photo the night before knowing that there was only going to be one chance to get this right. It was an overcast morning and there was rain falling just 5 minutes after we were done! I replaced the sky from a photo a took in June. I had to re-adjust the colors for it to match and the cloud in the corner makes it just convincing enough, not too much, just enough. I used my f1.8 50mm lens as it is the fastest lens I have. To really stop the motion I wanted a high shutter speed. I also wanted a big enough aperture in case they fell out of my focus a little bit. My settings seemed to work well as I had it set to 1/1000 at f8. I set the camera to take multiple images at high speed. This was the third frame. Super cool, fun people! Thank you Nicole and Casey!!
