Today's #DailyPhoto from #DerbyDaze #SquareFormat #RollerDerby #Photography session at the November 9th 2013 Sydney Roller Derby League #SRDL placings bout between the Screaming Assault Sirens & the D'Viants.
I like that the D'Viant skater ends in line with a lot of the light trails, and then the more ephemeral, stretched and blurred SAS skater begins.

Most likely the result of the long exposure, with someone else's flash going off at the end; an unintentional slow curtain flash shot, producing motion trails ending in a frozen moment.

Found some of my Dad's negatives. Need to make some prints!

Whoops, forgot yesterday's pic, here it is. A single SAS Jammer, powering around the track; hair matching shirt.

And now the matching D'Viant skater in two edges of motion, with the long trail of a referee in the background.
If you're the right age, I bet you're hearing this on some of these images:

The SAS pack of three, sweeping past in a line, with ghostly referees visible in the background.

A single D'Viants skater with a referee in the background. One of the rare face-inclusive images in this set.

A really clear capture of two moments of the one skater within the shot. This can happen because other photographers are using flash, painting a frozen image into the long exposure each time the flash fires.

The Team Unicorn player is closest to camera, with multiple BSK players chasing on her other side, such that it looks like everyone is looking towards the viewer during the a moments of the shot.

Another flowing, surreal Cronenberging of figures. The BSKskater(s) completely painting over the barely visible purple & rainbow of the Team Unicorner.

Three (I think) figures blurred and merged appearing to share a single leg, becoming almost an "odd object in an odd landscape" surrealist image.

The left figure's set of shoulders relative to head, and the positioning of her arms gives a really striking impression of how much power she's unwinding down through her torso to her right leg, propelling her out of the corner and into the straight.

More gold than green in this shot's overall palette, and one of the rarer moments capturing a skater running backwards so they're all appearing bound together into a single moving pillar; converging at the waist.

These shots, with the full dark band at the top, the tonal symmetry left to right, are the holy grail for these images. It feels like trying to create a Rothko of movement rather than stillness.

Some of the competitors were playing for more than one team (covering for people who couldn't make it on the night), because this is a community participation, and spectator-entertainment-focussed event.
