SOME OF THE best shots Steve gets of softball games come from behind the center field fence, where he can get crisp images with the telephoto lens. Much of the appeal of sport is the tension of anticipation, and this image has it. Tiger catcher Sienna Rubright is preparing to frame the pitch if the batter doesn’t swing. The batter is flexing her muscles getting ready to let the bat fly. The umpire is zeroing in on the flight of the ball, set to make a call if necessary. It’s all there. Independent photo/Steve James
