Yeah I had it in spot mode and I would compose the shot on the player then recompose for the final shot. It was just very hard to get the camera to "lock" on the white shirts. Next time I will try to lock on the helmet. The other problem was with a large aperture if the boys move forward in their swing the focus on them would be very soft. Thanks for the input.I think it works well. Try a portrait orientation to get the entire player in frame (and less background, i.e. cars)
The best way to avoid focusing on the net is to choose AF Spot mode, even then it will be tough.
p!nK
Manual focus is the ticket through a fence/net like this. But you might run into DOF problems at the larger aperture you were using to, quite successfully, blur the background.
In my opinion the timing of the image presented feels a little off. You caught him after he finished the majority of his swing. To me it might have been more successful if you had made the image as he was either poised to swing, capturing his tension and focus. Or perhaps mid swing at the moment where all the energy is released.
