Hi folks,

I posted some photos the other day and one gentleman commented that they looked to "snap-shot" like. After I looked at them again, I kind of agreed. Now everything I look at has me thinking it is too "snap-shot" like.

Wondering about these photos shot today at Cal Ripkin Stadium for the "First Pitch" event. Are they too "snap-shot" like or do they tell a good story of the events of the day. What could have I done to improve on these? There were lots of people there with cameras and I'm thinking anyone of those people could have taken photos like these. Your thoughts.

Thanks for your input everyone.

#4 works.

the rest just look like snapshots, not really a dedicated photo.
but #4 is so cute and sharp and the colors are great.

Ok... that makes sense to me. I think I understand what separates the "snap-shots" from the keepers. Thank You.

All of the photos look very good to me. The photo of the little girl is amazing.
