I love the 2nd one, great focus on the pitchers face just before the release. And I liked the last one, GREAT action at the plate!
I also want to complement you on your clean backgrounds on all the photos, so the viewers focus is on the action at hand. Also I like the fact that everything is cropped nice and tight on the action.

I feel like some shooters of youth sports have a whole bag of excuses as to why the dont turn out great photos. You have clearly show than you CAN shoot youth sports and turn out photos that could be used in SI. So I applaud you for that because I know the shooting situations can be challenging to say the least!

John,

Very nice shots, you have the eye and the composure of the kids.

Key thing I have learned in shooting sports action shots especially with the little kids, Moms like faces and dads like the action shots.


Your play at the plate will go over well with everyone.

Nice work and keep it up.
