Baseball set

[412 Burgh]

First time photographing a sports event. Only had access to one team's dugout as it was raining. Used a good old bag to keep the camera and lens dry. Wish I could have gotten some better angles but this was the first time shooting a game, plus the field was an unusual set up. Just photos of my cousin because I didn't want to put his teammates on here with parent's permission.

Good expressions on some of thee shots--very clear, sharp faces! In #4, there ought to be less space on the left, and more on the right side of the frame, and the background player being cut off is not really helping. #3 is also, ever-so-slightly framed with the player a bit too far too the right, making the overall picture appear just, slightly, off-balance. These are pretty good for a first-ever sporting event effot....MUCH better and more serviceable than one might expect! Parents ought to enjoy this quality and clarity.

I like all of these, backgrounds look good, which is tough for most fields. Watch that you keep the horizon lines straight. I find them a little flat, maybe a bit more contrast would, based on the day you described, the light probably was flat. Little faster shutter speed would have been nice, but overall, really good shoot.
