    Re: College Baseball

    Very good catches, baseball in my opinion is the hardest sport to shoot. I really like that top shot of the swing and hit. The expression on the bottom shot is also amazing, to bad there isn't a bit more face to go along with it, but we only get what we are given not what we want when it comes to sports photography.

    Great reaction and emotion capture on that last one JETA. Where are the pics of that long tall pitcher of yours?
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    He just got off the DL. He hurt his back and has been in pt for a couple of months, but all healed up now.

    Antone's put on 20 pounds of muscle. He looks amazing.

    That's him in the middle with his mitt tucked up.

    It's not blurry. It's bokeh.

    Thank you Betty. No matter what my heart lays in sports.

    My broken leg really messed things up for me. I'm hoping to try my hand at a track meet tomorrow.

    Glad to see you back and shooting again! I figured though you'd be back in time for baseball, just keep working on that leg.... football season isn't that far off!
