Daily DeviationFoul Ball - Black+White by =screamlordbyron I've never seen a foul ball shot like this. I've seen them from the first base shooting position. I hate shooting baseball. Anyway, the DD. What I love about it is that it is so NOT indicative of this guy's gallery. But ... I'm a sucker for slices of life. I couldn't have made this photo any better. (Featured by `cweeks)

Thanks! Actually it was not entirely candid. While sitting with my friends (we were sitting right in the foul lane along the fist base line) I noticed the crowd reaction durring a couple of foul balls and decisded to try to cature it. This was the best of the shots. :)

I love the angle and the fact that everyone is turned in their seats... it creates such a sense of movement. Pure anticipation! Excellent work!
I love it, The emotion is so strong. I love that woman with her hands to her mouth. Awesome shot! =D

I don't know about fooling anybody. It wasn't a set-up shot. But I was cued up and waiting for the right moment. A little planning, a little luck. :)

There's a great quote from some famous photgrapher (I forget who at the moment), who, when asked but how to get great shots, he replied: "f.8 and be there!" I just happened to be there. ;)

Thanks! This is one of those shots where it all just came together. The eyes fo my firends in the foreground, the reactions of the people in rows behind. Right time, right palce and camera in hand. ;)
