I have recently started working for the school newspaper at UTD (I am a student there) and want to get some feedback on my pictures. We made the playoffs so I have more to shoot this coming Friday and Saturday.

Nice start Ben. A couple of them could use some tighter crops especially if being used in newspaper. The shadows are really dark in the first three, but could easily be fixed. One of my friends is the assistant SID there at UTD I think.

I agree with Jason tighter crops are needed. The 2nd shot would be nice if the batter was isolated and the people weren't behind him.

Also I think a lower angle would be better and it would get you more faces/eyes. Good start to the year, best of luck.

The best advice I ever received was "get your butt on the ground, shoot low and tight, and then crop tighter"! I shoot most of my baseball vertical, especially any shots at the plate. Good luck!
