Greetings!
First, I'd like to say that I joined this forum almost a year ago, and quickly became very INactive. Time, or lack of, is really a killer when it comes to trying to improve hobby skills.
At any rate, lately, I've been trying to photograph my kids and their friends at their respective activities. I have a soccer player, a dancer, and a gymnast. I think my setup is pretty basic. I have a Canon T2i, with the kit lens, as well as a Tamron A0005, which I love. I like the ability to rapid-fire my shots, and I know (at least in soccer) I can get the better shots if I am standing somewhere on the perimeter of the field where the players are running toward me.
Beyond that - I'm at a loss. I take my camera to every event, but I'm not changing any behaviors, and I'd like to try to get better, if not good, shots. I'm really just looking for any tips anyone has for getting good sports shots.
Thanks in advance - and if this is the wrong place for this thread, please accept my apologies.
