Fixing a broken leg in Photoshop

I selected one person from each sports team for Fall sports here and with a little scheduling miracle I was able to get them all together for about five minutes to take this photo. It's not an HDR, and the only thing Photoshopped about it is the left leg of Dan, the football player (see below). The trick to the photo was that I scheduled it right at sunset hour on one of the few cloudy days here in Redlands, and I calculated all of my exposure and lighting powers ahead of time. The result was exactly what I wanted.

Sports Photography Anyone?


I just got back from the Redlands soccer game at Pomona Pitzer today (just took this picture to the left there), and I realized that some people in the club might be interested in sports photography. If you are, you can check out the Redlands Sports Schedule to see when and where the games are. I go to just about every home game and I drive to many of the away games, so you are always welcome to join me on the sidelines.
