High School Baseball

... well recreational high school baseball at least. I used to play and my dad still coaches.

These were all shot from the dugout as that is the only place not restricted by a fence to shoot from. It makes it a little difficult to shoot the batters as you are slightly behind them.

All images shot my with 7d and 100-400 at f/5.6 ISO 1000 and ~1/2000; partly cloudy day

C&C please

Your pics are all done well given the restriction to shoot from the dugout. I would crop out the fielder (legs) in #3. I shoot little league (age) baseball games and find that fences and backgrounds are most always a problem. If you arrive during the pre-game warm-ups, you can usually get on the field and get some great shots of batting practice and fielding.

It's amazing how many (even good) batters, catchers, fielders and umpires close their eyes.

Yes it is amazing they still close their eyes at this level.

I would straighten the horizon on 3.

These look good but I would like a little more pop from them.
