    Take me out to the ball game

    This is a first for me...sports photos. I love baseball so I thought I'd get some pictures at a minor league game.

    I think they are great for the first time out as a sports photographer. Keep it up.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    You are right on it for first time. You must have had a really good seat, and you have great timing on all of the photos. I'm with everyone else with the photo on the top I don't think that Black and white works for it, try posting it in color so we can see the difference.

    Good timing. #2 is awesome!

    I'm with everyone else on b&w. I'd like to see that one in color.
    It's not blurry. It's bokeh.
