My ball tournament

[viper91180]

Every year for the last three years, my girlfriend and i have held a slow pitch tournament, the money goes to the childrens hospital here, the tournament started as a f undraisor for her babey cousin who had a rare disease, sadly chelsea passed away, however my girlfriend and i still have the tournament and donate the money in her name. heres a few pics i snapped, not sure any of them are good but it was my first try really.

Hey Viper....

These look good. You can't expect major league shots when shooting a venue like this... and this is for the fun of it. If you could open up your aperature a little, it would have soften the backgrounds some and created a little more focus on the subjects. I like the motion in the 4th shot... makes it different yet you still have a good sharp subject too. Other then chopping off his feet, there is nothing there to change in my opinion. The third shot could have been cropped a little tighter - not a biggie. Good stuff!
