Tanning on the Dugout:
Softball has to be one of my favorite collegiate sports to photograph. Maybe its the excuse to spend some time in the sun right after the rainy winter, maybe its the nonsensical chatter that you can’t help but to crack a smile at, but at any rate its wayyy better than baseball.
The closer field, the slides and the mix of dirt and diamond earrings makes for some great images. I positioned myself on top of the dugout to wait for a slide to come towards me so I could capture the expression on the player’s face. The wait paid off. My bosses 400mm f/2.8 didn’t hurt either…
