Other than a few snaps of my kids. This is buddy and little league (my boys had games at the same time), but I didn't get nearly as many action shots as I would have liked. Mostly just pitching and batting. I'll work more on the action shots next game...

1. I loved the look on some of the boys faces that just came up from buddy league. It's a whole new game playing with a live pitcher for some of these boys.

5. I know you can't see his face here. I have some that you could of some of the other kids... guess I should have put one of those in. I hate the people in the background. :(

8. I love the body language of this one. The 1st baseman had the ball, and held it while a runner came in. I can just hear the backcatcher saying, "what's up??? Where's the ball?"

    Nope, actually pretty good. Nice colors, some good faces, sharp... Nice job!

    You've got some nice shots there, but, that is one of the most obnoxious watermarks I've seen and WAY too big given the small size of the posted images.

    After seeing the first one I almost immediately hit the back button. I have a feeling many did. I don't think you have to worry so much about someone stealing one of your images.:D

    Unfotunatly ugly watermarks have a purpose. some nice action shots and expressions , i just did a couple tournaments of girls fast pitch. one thing is if you get on the field NEVER take your eye off the ball. after taking a line drive foul ball to the temple 3 weeks ago, I speak from experience. Next ime im also wearing my riding helmet to shoot. ( im just glad it was the 8 yr olds ) I still cant open my jaw all the way. eek7.gif

    Thanks everyone!! :) I hope to keep improving adn getting more of the fun action shots. I am going to work on getting inside the fence too (I hate shooting through it!). But then again, I'm afraid of someone hitting my camera/lens if I'm inside! Laughing.gif

    Sorry if the watermark bugs.... It's there for a reason. Next time I want to post on boards, I'll try and remember to leave it off.
