The baseball game was rained out, so I took my camera to a different
venue. A tough series to shoot since the arena is outdoors but covered,
so the light didn't allow as fast a shutter speed as I would have liked.

I don't know if this is appropriate for "Sports", but I think it qualifies.

    Maybe it's just my screen, but that looks sharpened. A LOT...

    I agree about the sharpening, but I think the slow shutter speed is working in Tony's favor. I get a good feel for the action. Nice captures and comps. Colors look a little cool to me though.

    An "accurate" reproduction of a scene and a good photograph are often two different things.

    I should have selectively sharpened instead of using the Unsharp tool.
    The horse and rider needed a bit of sharpening, but the dirt didn't.
