Catching Up: Little league

Gainesville pitcher Jonathan Gettys pitches in the top of the first inning as the Walton County All-Stars take on the Gainesville All-Stars in a little league game on Friday, July 2, 2010 in Athens, Ga.

Earlier this month i went and photographed a game two innings of Little League. Good light, fun compositions. Missed a lot while i was trying funky stuff. Held the camera up over my head to get that shot.

More after the jump.



Again, i just try to be different & artsy when i get the opportunity. Neither team was particularly local, so i had ample opportunities to play around and try to get photos that makes out Sports Desk cringe.

I would love it if ever place in the world would move to a black nylon rope backstop (like mlb or the local high schools) in lieu of the silver metal chain link fence. I can shoot through the rope easier and not get the fence in my shots.
