Here's a quick baseball shot from this week; definitely got lucky on this one. It's amazing to see a metal bat flex like this:

Great shot.

Are you confident the bat is flexing? Just thinking this could be due to shutter. (like the bendy propeller effect)

Nicely captured. By the way what shutter speed did you use for this?

I dont think the bat isnt bending like that, I think its an artifact from the end of the bat moving faster than the inside. Looks cool though.

Eyes wide shut; jammed him high and tight. Nonetheless, cool looking capture.

Cheers !
