Wouldn't it be "Come to me, OH ball"? Otherwise, you're saying "Come to me, your ball" (and even then it should be "Come to me, THY ball").

I will now await the standard "You've all got terrible teeth, you don't wash very much and have you met the Queen?" response. :p

Thanks for the strobe lighting info... very similar to what I have (40D, 3 speedlites and 3 ebay remotes) but I haven't tried strobing a BB game yet.

Did you happen to take a picture of where they were mounted in the bleachers?

Did you just adjust ISO until the exposures looked right?

Any particular reason for using 1/4 power (refresh cycle time)? Looks like they gave plenty of light... a few hard shadows, but MUCH better than camera-mounted flash. I'm curious to try bouncing off a back wall.

On the original title photo, it looks like someone turned off the On-court Gravity System. :)
