nice of those fielders to stand still for your hdr shot... you really capture a night at the park... did you stitch these pano's together?

Awesome images. simply awesome. I have new respect for the DA 50-135 (and your work too). Were these shots hand held or tripod? I've found that Fenway park does not permit tripods, while Camden Yard (Baltimore) does.... Interesting.

Thanks icy. Actually, they're just cropped 8mm shots, no stitching.

I appreciate the compliment. Not only are they all hand held shots, but the two player shots are pretty heavily cropped as well. The 50-135 is sharp as a razor.

It's really sweet what 8mm allows you to do. Thanks for the feedback!

Sweet job, for sure. These really capture the feel of a night game.
