(granted, the ball is still on the way towards the plate) http://charles.robinsontwins.org/photos/2010/twins_game/content/IMGP5190_large.html This angle lets you squish more elements into the photo, too (if that's what you're into). -Charles -- Charles Robinson - [email protected] Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
