BobTheCow posted:I hope that doesn't sound too harsh... in order to shoot sports more effectively, you first need to recognize what makes a good sports photograph. The main things I'd recommend watching out for while you start out are good action moments and clean backgrounds. For the first photo, I know it would have been better had I nailed the focus, but I still thought it was a cool effect that highlighted the movement of the player into the frame (too fast to focus on?). The second photo I did focus on the net player intentionally. I have other shots with the opposite focus. I was trying to represent the feeling of being at the net and waiting for your partner to serve behind you, not really knowing what is going on back there while you are focused in your ready position. Does that make any sense? For the third one, I really do wish I had gotten the ball in the frame. Here are a couple others from the same shoot that hopefully suck slightly less.  cornershot by beazty327, on Flickr Here I just wish I hadn't missed the rest of the player's foot:  stretch volley by beazty327, on Flickr

DJExile posted:The top one is very nice. 2nd one is a good moment but it can do with a very generous crop from the top and bottom. After a quick crop, I agree with you completely!  stretch volley crop by beazty327, on Flickr
