New England – May 2025 – Sports Action

Judges Comments

1. Great peak action to capture the athletic ability of the baseball player. Clean background minus the outfielder made this stand out. 2. Nice facial reactions to a peak moment scrambling for a ball. A tighter crop and cleaner background could have made it a contender for first. 3. Good focus on the athlete’s eyes and framing it with the tennis racket. Shallow depth of field helped clean up the background.
