Thanks! Every now and then we will play the early game and get on this particular field. I take advantage of it because I can usually get some nice sky shots like that.

Here is another angle. This is SOOC other than the adjustments shown. It's crazy the DR this sensor has.

Wanted to get closer but mom was nearby....wild pigs at Circle Bar B. A local told me there were 6 piglets just a month earlier. Gators
have to eat too.

speaking of gators...look what I spotted in my neighborhood lake. I live a couple minutes from Brazos Bend park where Travis shot a couple weeks back. The lakes in my neighborhood actually feed into natural water ways (oyster creek), and its pretty common to see these things along the running trails here. There are also a lot of really cool looking birds out here. I'm not a birder, but I'm sure there are some special ones out there. They tend to migrate with the seasons.

Love the light on the gator's face. Well done.

Since we are on a gator kick... let me jump in on this bandwagon.

Awesome shot! I’m going to have to try to get a lower angle for my daughter’s softball games from now on. That shot has also got my 70-200 GM lust in full swing, lol.

Did anyone else notice there’s two baseballs in that shot? .

WINNER!

I was waiting for it buwahaha. He totally missed the shot but I had an idea to layer the previous shot w/ the ball in the front location.

I'm embarrassed to say that it took me about 30 minutes just to accomplish this simple job. Even having seldom used photoshop the past 10+ years I still just don't get it.

So what happen was I deleted the layer to reveal the background underneath but I couldn't figure out how to put it back so I left it. I was waiting to see if anyone noticed.

I never said he hit the ball I just said it was my son

LOL! No biggie, I’ve done the same thing with my daughter’s softball shots... that’s probably why I noticed.

Also... I wouldn't lust too hard on that 70-200. To me it's not some kind of amazing lens. I'm selling mine. I don't feel it's even on par with the canon mk2.

Well that stinks, thanks. I usually shoot with the 70-200 mk II and 300 2.8 IS on the 7D2/5D3, so I’m used to decent f/2.8 glass and was hoping the GM would be at least equal to the Canon... it should be for the $$$ they’re asking. I have noticed a lot of hype and fanboy-ism around the Sony stuff. It’s hard to pick through all of the “it’s the most amazing camera/lens in the history of photography” BS to get to a real honest review sometimes. Probably a good idea to rent one for a few days first. I like the idea of the smaller/lighter f4, but as you know it’s so much nicer to have 2.8 (or better) for evening ball games and dimly lit recitals. Oh well, maybe I’ll just hang on to the 7D2 and my current white lenses for sports and use the A7III for other things.
