Editor’s Choice: In Uniform

Work and school uniforms and company colors are something we see every day. So it’s no wonder that they’re a highly sought-out photographic subject. That’s inspired today’s Editor’s Choice topic: In Uniform. Come take a look at some of the most interesting photos on Zonerama.

Thanks for using my photo from the 1980 game between the Portland Winter Hawks and Medicine Hat Tigers in Portland’s Memorial Coliseum. Nope…not the NHL but the WCHL (Western Canadian Hockey League), at the time. But, the goalie getting beat in that photo is none other than long time NHL’er Kelly Hrudy.
The photo was taken using an old Pentax Spotmatic camera with a 250mm lens. The camera had no frills…in fact, it had no batteries. No light meter, no auto anything. I took one light reading at the start of the game…focused on one point and shot all night.
The negative was highly scratched and was scanned at a medium quality. This was one of the first photos that I explored using the Zoner software to touch up and clean up some of the scratches. I will continue to work on them and hope to enhance even further.
And, yes, its the best hockey picture I have ever taken…so thanks for using it.
