		| | You got a great sky and angle here. | 
 |

		| | Looks a little late on the swing, like the composition. | 
 |

		| | Looks like it's gonna be a strike...  The ball is prety close and he's hardly beginning to swing. | 
 |

		| | The ball is definately stopped, but would be a lot better if the pitcher was included. | 
 |

		| | I like the composition and your stopped action ball turned out great just above the fence. | 
 |

		| | Nice Timing.  I would have prefered it from the oposie side so we could see the expression on the batter's face. | 
 |

		| | What timing, a split second later and the ball would hev been hidden.  Great photo. |

		| | Only one question, who is that sexy boy? | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/19/2002 12:07:00 PM | 
		| | Batter Up. I hope he didnt swing at that, its high and outside. |

		| | hard to execute! well done. | 
 |

		| | This is good stop action.  I think that more of a closeup of the boy would draw the attention to the ball and bat.  As it is, I can't help but look over towards the trees and clouds.  I can't help it, you took the photo on such a pretty day. |

		| | More ball, less scenery.  It almost gets lost in the picture, to me. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/18/2002 08:39:00 AM | 
		| | Nice sky, but imagine it with his feet and without the fence (or even just without the fence). | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/18/2002 07:22:00 AM | 
		| | Good idea, but focus on the ball for best results (easier said than done). | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/18/2002 01:32:00 AM | 
		| | this has a small amount of compression | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/17/2002 11:20:00 PM | 
		| | Really cool composition -- even the sky seems to play a key role in setting the mood.  Nicely done. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/17/2002 04:49:00 PM | 
		| | Good timing! The off-centre batter and ball help emphasise where the ball came from and is just about to go to. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/17/2002 04:46:00 PM | 
		| | nice picture. great sky.  if you have pshop try autolevels to even it out a little. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/16/2002 08:28:00 PM | 
		|  | 
		
			|  | 04/16/2002 03:56:00 PM | 
		| | Good Shot! Could have been a little brighter. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/16/2002 04:01:00 AM | 
		| | I like how the fence adds to the inwards thrust of the picture, anticipating the ball's motion before it's even hit. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/16/2002 12:26:00 AM | 
		| | Nice shot. I would have liked to see the ball a little closer up | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 09:40:00 PM | 
		|  | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 06:41:00 PM | 
		| | Nice Action shot.  Slightly out of focus. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 05:59:00 PM | 
		| | Not bad. I like the sky and the overall framing. I think it would benefit from adjusting levels. Could make it more dramatic. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 04:52:00 PM | 
		| | I would have preferred "he" wasn't cut off at the calf. But a very nice photo. Good job. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 04:42:00 PM | 
		| | but was it a homer? The fence kind of distracts me. Did you consider the other side of the boy to also get an expression to add some more emotion to the scene? | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 04:26:00 PM | 
		| | great sky formation - did he hit it? | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 02:59:00 PM | 
		| | The composition is very good - the photo gives a sense of where the ball is coming from and where it is going to return.  However, I think that it would have been helped if his legs weren't cut off like that - it just seems awkward and I think the full body would have made this a truly superb photo. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 02:57:00 PM | 
		| | Image seems kind of low res.  Was this scanned?  Also a little too dark. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 02:10:00 PM | 
		| | I have issues with people photogrphed from behind.  I do see the stopped ball in the photo and recognized this as the stopped motion.  The visual impact of this photo would be enhanced if the shot was a vertical orientation rather than horizontal and if shot from the other side of the batter. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 01:26:00 PM | 
		| | The ball seems to have blurr or focus problems. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 01:24:00 PM | 
		| | Reference to "The Natural"?  Good picture, a bit grainy though. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 12:34:00 PM | 
		|  | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 11:59:00 AM | 
		| | Fantastic, really fantastic. The angle of the fence is amazing, the angle of the boy's body, everything. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2002 09:06:00 AM | 
		| | Nice capture.  Picture is a bit 'flat' could do with some contrast adjustments to make it really 'snap' |
