A couple of images from this past weekends softball tournament hosted by Texas State. The second image got the title of "POW", I have been trying to capture that moment when the ball strikes the glove and got it this time. Comments are welcome.

Thanks for your thoughts. Have trying to capture that moment for sometime. Eveything just clicked at the right moment. I would have loved to have the batters eyes in view, but it just happens. Thanks again.

Glad to see some other softball pictures. I just finished up some the other day and am about to start shooting a 3 day series of baseball. Great shot on the second one. I like the timing.

Yes that would have been cool, but it just cool with me, it's like she just had to be ready for the POW! Thank you for your comments and I will keep trying to get that "oh yeah shot". Pete

I used to think I got more eyes closed pictures than anyone then started noticing a few more .. on here and elsewhere!

My favorite softball from last year.. though blown out from a partly cloudy day of sun coming and going. Favorite because she actually got the ball across to first base for the out.
