Well I got the ball on the bat, but I am not 100% happy and I don't know why. C&C Please.

Here are a few more from that game.

Well the first one is nowhere near sharp, in fact it's blurry, noisy, and has some real fringing issues.

The other ones are OK as far as capturing the moment, but I think they are over exposed.

Yea, the first one was cropped down big time and messed around in photoshop.

I always make my pictures a tad bit brighter than needed because of my printers ability to f things up.

Ahh, did you shoot the first one with the 70-300?

No, a 70-200 F/2.8 (I might have accidentally bumped up the F speed) I sometimes forget to turn off all the turn deals so it doesn't do that.

Really!? Wow, must have been really cropped.

Here it is minus the cropping and such.

I like that version better!

Me too (though it would have been better if it were a nicer hit).

I've always found the expressions athletes make amusing...

Same here, one reason I love sports photography. That and the action, I have sitting around taking event or portrait pictures, although I will do it for the money.
