Thanks, yes I was trying for dramatic lighting.
In fact I want to try again and move the lights back to get just a rim on each side. I'm still blown away that you can get the background to darken out that much. The gym was fully lit and the other players were holding regular practice... And this was not even at high speed sync, which I might try too ....
Except that there might then be some motion blur due to the longer flash duration.

A great shot. I disagree with cyclespeed as I like the contrast between her left and right sides.
