    It's not blurry. It's bokeh.

    good timing, and great positioning. the one thing i dont like about a lot of the release shots I've seen is the angle. this one is great. Kinda looks like my neighbor too!

    Re: Little Guy Release

    Thanks JETA, Sean and livin. As I said earlier there have been a lot of these release shots this season. It's tough to get something different when you go for the release. You just have to try for a good angel and hope your subject gives you a great expression or contortion of the arm or something that will make it standout a little. this little guy is my nephew. He's having another great year in the 9-10 year old league.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??
