Sorry but this info should have been in the original post.


It pretty much was, you chose to make a false ASSumption!

I still stand by the fact that no one should copy other people's work.


As do probably 99% of the people on this forum, so what is your point?

It's a nice image. Thanks for sharing.

Too often forgotten here is the fact that copying anyone's work is not to be applauded but it seems to be applauded by most on here. I find it is not art or proper photography if you have to copy another's work. The Op did just that copy anther's work and claimed the shot as his shot. I ask only why should anyone tell him it was a good shot when it contained another's work? I have worked in video and have worked in photography and like all pro's I deplore people who copy another's work. This shot is clearly just a still copy out of a video that was the work of other people. I know how much work goes into making video and great photography I only want to see original work not copy work. Is that hard to understand? I do not think so. I think the OP needed to show something original and not a copy.

How or where did you get the impression that the original video was the work of another person ??? I don't see that implied in the OP nor in any post other than your own.
This is why I ask if you are privy to information not apparent to the rest of us? Is that simple question so hard to understand?
If you have a valid reason to believe it was not the OP's work, then share it with us! Otherwise it seems you are jumping to false conclusions.

You may all applaud the Op but I still see it as a copy of someone else's work. It is borderline as far as law is concerned but why applaud a copy? Photographing the TV set is not real photography it is copy work and any copy shop could do it.. Chasing an animal 4 hours around a lake to get a great shot and then make the shot yours is photography. Anything else is imitation photography.


? ? ? TV set ? ? ? Did I miss something here, or is your vivid imagination filling in missing information that only you are privy to? I think the OP captured the video how is that so difficult to understand?

Tom,
I do hope you fared well, I have friends and family in both North & South Carolinas. Friends 100 miles inland were hit harder than some family right on the coast. Thanks for sharing the photos.

I've been using this lens for a few months now on my Canon 70D. I don't know if I'm a good enough critic to give you the info you're looking for, but I've been very pleased with the performance of the lens. Is it perfect? No!, I wish it were a little faster, and you can expect to see some chromatic aberration on the long end in high contrast situations. But these are limitations I fully expected when I purchased the lens.
In a nutshell, it totally depends on your expectations. I've been very happy with it, but I was not expecting the performance of a $4,000 lens. Hope this helps.

It may be 49, but it's not 50. I'm living proof that #24 is incorrect, regardless of what your dentist tells you.

Fascinating read though, Thanks for sharing.

Never know when you might run across an otherwise perfectly serviceable squirrel that's missing a tail.

A few more photos....


Okay, I've heard if you have to eat crow, it's a dish best served hot, so . . . .

I'll take mine now please.

If you look at the lines in a net, they usually tend to run in a slight zigzag, this is what I thought I could see in the first image. However, after trying to enhance and sharpen the lines to validate my theory, what I thought I was seeing is just not there. Therefore I'll have to concede, I now believe it is most likely moiré we're seeing in both images, and that it most likely appeared during post processing. Why it would have only occurred in the first several images is a mystery to me.

I would ask that you all please forgive me for defending my position. I try to be correct in my logic all the time, but sometimes I'm wrong.

The OP's topic is, "What are these lines from?" In the second image it is not as obvious as in the first.

The lines in the first image are clearly moiré. Where they are 'from" (what caused them) is the real question. Was it temperature, ISO or processing?

We don't have enough to go on. He needs to tell us some more about the images he did not post. Until he does there is not much point in further speculation on our part.


Scotty, "The lines in the first image are clearly moiré." I'll have to respectfully disagree and, as I said, I'll have to work on some images to show you why. I've understood the OP's question from the start, and the fact there was no glass and no netting between the lens and the subject, with the exception of his UV filter.

"Where they are 'from" (what caused them) is the real question. Was it temperature, ISO or processing?"

In my opinion, none of the three! I believe they were caused by a secondary reflection on the back of the filter. I could be wrong, and you could be right, but I'm not through working on this problem yet.

Maybe you need to start reading again from the top.

There was no glass where he was sitting so there was no netting between the camera and the subjects.


I did read from the top, and I'm not talking about anything between the camera and the subjects. I'll post some pics to try to explain what I'm referring to.

We were shown only 3 images and the first one clearly looks like moiré to many of us. The moiré is not as clear in the second one but the regular pattern of dots covers the entire image. It's not a net.

The chance that it has anything to do with reflections and that they occurred only in the first 20 images and not any of the remaining images from the 1100 taken is simply too much of a coincidence.

The OP has made it clear that there was no glass or net present. All of the images were taken last Saturday so I'm sure we can trust his memory on that.

The ball is in the OP's court. Once he has time to look at the images he should be able to narrow down what they have in common.

Scotty, The second image does look somewhat like a moiré pattern, and they both certainly could be, however, if I'm seeing what I think I am seeing, I don't think it could be. I'll try to enhance the pattern to show you what I'm talking about.

Yes there is netting above the glass the entire rink.


Hey Poop for brains, looks like you can't even remember what you've said in your own post, and we're supposed to go by what you think you remember.

Everyone has been trying to offer suggestions with the best of intentions but many of us initially overlooked this statement. It rules out a lot of the speculation.

The problem cannot be the lights, reflections, flare or the protective filter. They were present for all of the unaffected images, 98% of the total. So you should examine:

1. In the first 20 images, did the problem go away gradually? Then it might be the camera temperature reaching a steady state and staying there for the rest of the game.
2. Did the problem go away suddenly when you changed from ISO 6400 to 3200?
3. Did you do anything different in post processing the first 20 images that you did not do for the others?

You posted only three images for us to examine but you can answer these questions by looking at the others.

I didn't overlook this statement, however the lines in the image do not appear to be indicative of a moire type pattern, nor do they match what I would expect to see resulting from pulsating light from gas tube lighting. Therefore I would, contrary to your findings, rule out about everything but reflections. Perhaps there were only a few shots taken where the camera was at such an angle as to make the reflections noticeable, but that doesn't rule out reflections. I would bet that if and when the op goes to the trouble of recovering the raw images, he'll find the lines there as well. If you look at the lines, they look like a distorted, and unfocused, image of a net, with the type of distortion I would expect to see from the image reflected off the convex surface of the objective lens and onto the flat surface of the filter. We don't even have to guess as to whether or not a net was present, we already know it was.
If it looks like poop, and it smells like poop, you probably don't need to taste it to know what it is!
