ALC Celtic v Bramley Town

Second Round Division Cup

Sunday morning was dry and bright so we headed down the road to watch ALC Celtic play Bramley Town.  Bramley got off to a strong start and were 4-0 ahead by half time, Celtic came out fighting in the second half and were unlucky not to get a goal from a number of opportunities. Bramley eventually won 6-0 and go through to the next round.

The Photography

Despite being a welcome change from the recent grey weather the sun created a number of problems for the photography.  It was bright but the sun was low in the sky and the shadow cast by nearby buildings cut the pitch in two.  This was quite a challenge for both the automatic metering and the white balance which resulted in a lot more tweaking post processing than I'm used to.  Lightroom it quick for this kind of job but when each image needs individual attention it's very time consuming.  I shall be researching tips for dealing with these kinds of situations and see what I can improve.  Having said that I did get some reasonable results as you can see.
