| Baseball Cards | December 10, 2009 @ 7:47pm | These have been a hit with the kids on my sons high school baseball team.
(1) My son. Not the sharpest shot, but I like his "game" face.

| December 11, 2009 @ 8:53am | Eddie, what a wonderful treat for your son and his team mates! You've really captured their "game" faces, too.
Did you use a long lens for these? I imagine you'd have to, unless they were posing for you.

| December 11, 2009 @ 1:47pm | I use a Nikon D300 with a 70-200 2.8 VR for most of my sport pics. If it is a bright day and if I'm trying to get shot of the outfielders I'll add a 1.7 TC.
These cards were all created in PSE 5. I used a background image that is a close-up of a bucket of practice balls. I change the color of the balls using the "Color Variation" tool. Then I just add a stock frame from the PSE program, add the photo, re-size it if necessary, and then start adding all the text elements. I found the font used for the "Bruins" for free by just searching the web. It's called "Marcelle Script" for the letters, and Marcelle Swashes" for the tails.
Any more question, just ask
Here is one of my better action shots...
