Too bad you didnt get the bat and ball so they wernt blurred, I think it would have made it alot better.

Good composition. Great action shot. Shutter speed is perfect. Shows the swing of the bat and hitting of the ball. If we ever have an action shot challenge , everybody bettter just back off.

Great control over both shutter speed and DOF here. I like the designs made by the light reflection in the moving bat.
