New game, new challenges.

New lens Tameron 70-200.

*Note this is family and don't know the other families involved yet so went away from the "Follow the Ball" mantra a bit.

As always, comments, critiques and criticism welcome.

The colors / exposure was wonderful. I really like the eye-level view and tight cropping of the action on the first image. I can't tell from the EXIF data what was the focus mode. The player on the left edge of the frame is in better focus than the players that are the action and subject. If not using already, consider Continuous-servo AF on your Nikon. The boy with glasses is wonderful. Consider recropping to remove the open space above his head.

Thank you!
I am using CS/AF, but new sport for me.
Bit different than softball/baseball. More players in motion and finding the sweet spot is a bit of a challenge.

I've heard it mentioned that when shooting sports to try for low angles "Heroic" look.
With PeeWee that means lots of time on your butt and knees.
