Last week I had the great opportunity to do a shoot at Chase field! I was so giddy, and Dave was getting quite jealous! I got to pick up my "press credentials" from will call, and shoot from the dugout and the warning track. This shoot really tested my "action shot" skills, and baseball is a lot harder to shoot than I first anticipated! I read up on shooting baseball games, and the article said the hardest part is not knowing exactly where the play will be made! Will the throw go to first or third? Home or to the pitcher? Also, Since I had to shoot from the dugout, I used my 100-300 lens usually zoomed out all the way, and it is a little hard to find a tiny baseball (once the play started) through that thing! anyway- it was awesome, and challenging, and here a few of my favorite shots!
They called this guy safe...What?
They also called this guy safe...my camera begs to differ!
SO COOL! What a fun opportunity!!
