7 pics from fall baseball taken this Sunday. This is a fun league with no real championship or play off system, just to give the kids a chance to play baseball. That's why I like the last two so much, I tried to capture them really enjoying themselves.

EXIF is intact hopefully

Looks like a great day.

I'm assuming in #2 you don't have any more of his foot to play with and you didn't want to lose even more by straightening the horizon?

Maybe go ahead and lose more of his legs to make it look more intentional...

Love the leap in #3.

#4... meh.

#6... love the smile.

#7 doesn't work for me... looks amputated. Maybe try a tight portrait crop?

Great colors. Nice low perspective.

thanks for the comments. I agree with the rotation on 2. It's something I didn't even notice really. Going back, 5 needs it worse. On the last one yeah the crops not good but since these are just for parents I figured it's still a keeper. That shot was taken after the kid hit a double after struggling for a while.

Nice work. I think you'll like the leveler on the 7D to help you keep shots square on the field. The only thing I would watch about the sun being behind the players is that you lose the light under their hats... I constantly have to go in under the brims and lighten them up like this... Parents seem to love them so much more... If you like it I can go into a little more detail about how I go at it.
