Thanks BD. I tried and tried and tried again. I got an error when I tried to upload as an attachment (I think it was just a little too big). I just got frustrated and gave up. Anyways, thanks!

What age group and how long ago was this pic that she hasn't got a grill on her headgear?

my best bat2ball on my first weekend was a practice shot of the other teams player trying to figure out settings as the sun was going down. (opps loaded the pics in reverse order)

This is my gigantic 14u DD I talk about - all 5' 0.5" and 81-1/4 lbs of her...

Got two well timed shots at Metros this past weekend at Roseville, but didn't realize it until going thru the photos last night.

On the first pitch, it was this:




On the very next pitch, I got this one, although I obviously didn't let the camera adjust before squeezing the shot. Note the flat-spotted ball - this one went about 175 - right into F8's glove... Best shots are always the ones that weren't set up right!




For those of you comparing settings, these were single shot photos - not continuous - taken from about 150' away. (Zoom was around 150mm)
1/3200@F9 - ISO800 using a 40D with an f4-5.6 / 75-300 non IS (CHEAP) Canon zoom lens.
(-1/3 on the exposure compensation)
Have not done any post-work on the photos yet, other than to crop the second shot a bit.

Would be nice to see when someone posts photos, what settings were used. It may be helpful for others when trying to set things up...
