Here's some photos from my trip to California - this time from Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego where the San Diego Chargers met Kansas City Chiefs! The photos is not that much of a deal concerning technique, but the stadium light made the stadium bright and along with the beautiful sunset over the stadium these photos have a sort of HDR-effect which definetly takes the photos to the top.

Not that many comments to this photo - it just look great - even without editing. All I have done is turning up the colours a little bit, and some few other adjustments - and thats all.

It was quite funny, because as the sun went down the stadium light still did an amazing job for the photos. I didn't need to adjust the settings all the time. Especially this photo is a great catch with the fire after the second TD for Chargers.

Celebration at the end of the match - great win by the Chargers. I was lucky to get the fire at the same time as the fireworks went off from the roof. I did make some changes here: I wanted the hands sharp and the stadium semi-blurred and therefore I turned the aperture to the minimum while putting the exposure time to 1/320 to catch the celebrating hands better.
