Winterguard: Stopped & In Motion

I wanted to post something a little different than my normal best of images from the most recent LCGPC winterguard and indoor percussion show. While I was shooting pictures of two of the Scholastic A guards, Erath and Comeaux,  I decided to have a little fun and try some slower shutter speeds when most of the performers were spinning flag. With the black curtain behind them and light colored silks I was hoping to make some interested images with a lot of movement. Below are a few of the photos with the slower shutter (1/3 shutter, f4.5 aperture, ISO 250, 70mm lens on the Canon EOS-1D X) and a few of my favorite stopped action photos.
