I have a few more photos from that game and thought I would share the slide show. The game was a doubleheader, so there was some decent light for the first game. I had fun with it and am happy with the photos.

I have a few more photos from that game and thought I would share the slideshow.  The game was late, so there was too little light for my lens. I still salvaged a few, so here goes: If you find this post useful or interesting, please consider buying me a cup of coffee.Related Posts:slideshow &#124; Summer Softball Champtionshiptim in print &#124; Summer Softball Playoffstim in print&#124; Summer Softball Championshipslideshow: HECC BaseballTrouble Focusing?

		<description><![CDATA[I had a nice selection of four shots in last week&#8217;s paper,  cCLIFF&#8217;S CARVES OUT A CHAMPIONSHIP. I had had a tough time shooting the previous week&#8217;s playoff game (see Summer Softball Playoffs) as the game started late. This time around, they played a double header and I had good tlight for the first game. Amred with good light and good karma, I came home with some good photos. PHOTOS BY TIM O&#8217;BRIEN Above, Cliff&#8217;s Meat Market&#8217;s Lucy Stephenson swings for the fence early in the first game of the hard-fought double-header Carrboro Co-Rec softball finals against Chapel Hill Air at Hank Anderson Park on Tuesday. Below, Chapel Hill Air&#8217;s Ed Sawyer takes a good cut during the first game. Cliff&#8217;s Meat Market went on to win both games to take the championship in the Carrboro Parks and Recreation league. Above was the lead photo for the story, catching a good hack at the ball early in the game. The photo below was cropped to the top half to catch the pitcher&#8217;s toss. Here I caught another swing with some decent movement of the ball. I like this shot, but it ended up as a tiny shot on the front [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A couple of weeks ago, I shot a local summer softball playoff game. A pair of images from the shoot made it to the paper in Five down, two left in Carrboro Co-Rec. Above, high fives and congratulations end the night after Cliff&#8217;s Meat Market won 13-12 over the Chapel Hill Realty Group at Carrboro&#8217;s Hank Anderson Park. Cliff&#8221;s hard-fought wins over Milltown and CHRG on Thursday sends it into the final. Below, CHRG&#8217;s Dave Shaw jumps on a pitch Thursday night. The game had a late start shortly after 8PM. So the light was poor from the start and just got worse. As usual it took me some time to get into the zone, wasting valuable light. Before I knew it, I was shooting at ISO 1600 and a shutter spped slower than 1/160th of a second. This makes taking action shots tough. Too slow to catch action, too slow to stop camera shake. Fortunately, I learned a bit about Lightroom&#8217;s grain reduction controls, though these did little more than take the edge off. I ended up get more decent shots of the team in grey, Cliff&#8217;s Meat Market. Unfortunately, Cliff&#8217;s won, meaning they would move on to the [...]]]></description>
