It's Spring, so it must be time for Baseball!

Kiddie version, that is... Grandkids start playing in a couple of weeks.:angel:

Looking forward to loading up one of my Nikon's with nothing but slide film and trying some new-to-me slide film alongside with the M3. Why? Because I can later have the family over and we can watch the slide shows!!!😀😀😀

I am currently looking for a large background to put up in the backyard for very large viewing. If I can get the in-laws to bring over the popcorn wagon and some folding chairs, we can put on some background music and have a backyard theater!🙂

Would love to see some little league baseball pics from YOU folks!

Cool as a moose!

No, Dave, you can't start taking pictures like that. It's not cricket...

Cheers,

A white sheet over your clothesline or a volleyball net, or similar piece of technology. 😛

Sounds like a great idea. I am currently putting a roll of slide film through my Contax 167mt. Slide shows are neat and sure beat the computer (providing the weather is cooperative).

Oh, you also might want to check local thrift and Purple Heart stores for a used projection screen. That's how I got both mine.

Awesome. What focal length is that?

Thanks,🙂

That image and the one below were with my D2H and 70-210 2.8 VR lens at s=3200 for the first one and s=5000 for the one below. Amazing gear combination for shooting sports. Although I could get a crop factor with the D2X, it was not nearly as fast, not any better IQ despite the increased pixels, and the files were a PITA because they were so big! Nothing beats a D2H for sports photography.

Hey, thanks, he is our second grandson and believe it or not, he always has that same smile...always.😀

Here is the same kid at the same game:
