The second shot was intentional, the composition was lucky. His bunt bounced back up in the field of view. Shot about 25 feet away with 400. Full image, no crop. I thought it was different so decided to post and see what others think.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.

The second one is cool because it is different. I knew it was a bunt and I have probably never seen an entire game through of baseball... Canon EOS 30D * Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 * Canon 70-200mm f/4L

Seems kind of sharp contrast for DOF... No PP to increase blur. That is the contrast you get with that 400 and wide apertures and close focal distance. Super sharp focus area and very smooth and soft blur. I just love that lens. Name: Kevin
