Crash landing
It seems like have a specialty for capturing moments in sporting events that don't go quite as planned. This shot is part of a motor-drive sequence of an outfielder's attempt to capture a fly ball to shallow center field. The player just missed the ball on his diving attempt. I don't use autofocus on my camera and this was the only frame that was sharp as I pulled the focus following his run for the ball. Sometimes I just get lucky I guess.
