you're on the right track with this, just some things to keep in mind. there are two types of action shots: general action, and player specific. with player specific shots, you really need to try to isolate the player; here, that would mean getting the 2B out of the background. also, crop tighter, either in-camera or in pp (and in pp, go on and straighten your horizons). lastly, you need the shot just before this one, while his leading foot is still in the air ;-)
on the other hand, this is fine just the way it is. why? well, it all depends on where it's going. the suggestions above would only make sense if the image was being turned in for publication, or if it was going to be used to highlight a gallery or be included in a portfolio. if the image is one of 2-300 going in an online gallery, it's fine just the way it is, because anyone expressing interest is going to receive the finer processing anyway. |
