        I am the only female in a house full of boys, so sports are big deal around here. My son is an avid baseball player, and we are all big baseball fans. As I am sure you can guess, that means LOTS of baseball pictures!
        The one I took today though is my favorite so far. My son is notorious for pulling some pretty interesting moves on the field, and this one finally captured him at just the right second to show his baseball-playing attitude and personality. He is the runner in this image. Oh to be young again!

        So what is your favorite sport to photograph? What sports action gets you excited and grabbing the camera to capture just the right moment. Do you love the rush of getting the action frozen at just the right second in order to immortalize something amazing? Show us your action shots!

        SAFE!

        SAFE!

            Thanks Kent! I really thought I was going to catch him sliding, got a surprise on this one. Wish I could say it was planned!

              The best quality of a fantastic sports photographer is being prepared… that and great timing. This photograph displays both those qualities. Preparation + Luck = Great Planned Photograph. 🙂

                Great job of freezing the action here. Your little guy can sure jump high!

                  Could this be that perfect wave they wait all day for?

                      Great shot Christine! I look at waiting to see if he actually catches the wave, like its going to move or something! Nice one.
