I took this image at my grandson’s track meet, I got down low the get him as he got on his mark. The image is a little noisy as it was very cloudy and nearing sunset I had to bump my ISO up to 400.

I’m surprised there is that much noise with an ISO of 400…

Great shot.. love the perspective.
Would even be better if you could clean it up in post.

I agree, but it was very cloudy and just about sunset and it was a long wide shot, the runner is my grandson I cropped in to isolate him and with the light conditions and lighting it in post left a lot of noise and artifacts. I worked at getting them out even using Topaz Denoise but the result was very much like an oil painting. Guess next time I have to use a longer lens so I don’t have to crop.

Very good shot. A slightly lower F-stop (wider aperture) would have helped put the visual weight even more on the subject and allowed a higher shutter speed/ or lower ISO. Regardless , framing and low angle makes this shot great.
