Hey everyone,

I am a newbie and I recently bought a Canon 70-200mm f/4 lens for my Canon 20D. Here are some of the better ones from the past few games.

Thank you for looking,

nice... I think you did a good job but getting nice and low for the
batter shots. If you could possibly scoot over to the left a little
you may have a better angle to get the face.

if you can, try sitting somewhere on the first base line to
get some shots of batter's faces as they start toward 1st base...

also, that lens will work best in daylight, so if you are shooting
try to take advantage of the day games.

Dave,

Thanks for the tips. Those pictures were taken on top to the 3rd base dugout. I plan on trying to get in the photo pits for a few day games. I will have to try going down to the first base side as well.

Thanks a lot,
Justin

Whatever you are resizing with or hosting with is compressing these like a mofo and is ruining your pictures.

Yes. I believe it is happening when I download them onto webshots. Is there any other way that I can post my photos without this happening?

Thanks,
Justin
