Digital Camera Fiend - A Camera Review

This photo, taken with a Nikon D80, is the stuff classic sports photography is made of. It seems like an intimate capture of one of the game’s marque players.

He is projected as alone and isolated on the field–a clever framing by the photographer–because in actuality, the photo was probably taken as he was warming up for his turn at the plate.

Might look even better in black and white.
