Ladies Softball

[hesaias]

Here are a few shots I took of the ladies softball team. This was my first time shooting softball, and I was behind the fence. I still do not have a good lens, but I got some good feedback from the palyers on thier pictures.












It was a bright day and I could not get on face side of the batters because of the glare. I shout mort of these from behind the backstop or over the out field fence.

Any tips on dealing with bright lite would be greatly appreciated. Im usually in low light, now too much light!

Meter off the bright faces or uniforms.

but if their uniforms are black or white, don't meter off them. You'll get the wrong exposure settings.

Nice job on these. I'ts difficult to get good angles when you are restricted by the fence. One suggestion that I would have is when you are shooting the batter and there is a close back stop with fans sitting or standing behind, than use the largest aperture you can to try and keep them as out of focus as possible. Fans behind the action that are in sharp focus rarely add anything psoitive to the image.
