Over the last few days I've been at the diamond for more hours than I can count. Softball is a game of intense action followed by periods of inaction. My job is to capture those split second rushes; the moment the pitcher releases the ball; the point of impact of the bat; the slide home; and the catch... I've put together a series of bar images that capture all of these. They are crops from larger images that I hope sell well when parents get to feast their eyes on the whole gallery. Hope you enjoy the artistic take on Softball...
Those young ladies can really whip that ball in there. This particular team is undefeated in league play this year and their pitching plays a big role in that success...
Their catchers stand tall behind the plate putting that glove to great use...Any coach will tell you a good offence starts with a solid defence.
Focusing on the pitch in the on deck circle. they sit there and read the pitcher, time their swing as if they were at bat and mentally prepare for their opportunity to face the opposition...
I watched this team run through the line up three times in the third inning. Hit after hit after hit after hit kept me busy behind the lens...
This girl was absolutely amazing at bunting. Without fail she advanced the runner and laid down a few that allowed her to speed her way to first...

Love the shot of the catcher, with the dirt spraying off the glove as the ball smacks the leather.
