Well, the weather here in the North East has been brutal to say the least. Really nice days and really wet days. Been tough to get out and shoot. Here are a few from the last week that I had an opportunity to shoot a couple of games.

All shot with the 1D Classic, Sigma 100-300. All are cropped for the web.

Having field access makes all the difference for me. Really allows me to get in tight. Have to work on getting some different angles as the season moves on.

Let me know what you think.

Kid in #3 has the wrong foot on the bag, even though it doesn't matter at that point since the runner is already safe.

Good timing on many of them, nothing outstanding to me, but definitely shots the parents will enjoy.

I would prefer a faster shutter speed on the hitting shots.

Stay away from swing and miss shots, especially if trying to sell, because they don't. That would be #6.

Overall, not bad.

What I think is great... is that the 1D classic is still capable
of generating shots like the first 2... nice job.

My one suggestion on the batter shots, is give some thought
to catching the batter in his backswing as he watches the ball
taking off.

I think you mean on the follow through? That'd be cool too, but these are great!
