hitting & shagging

Saturday morning I went out to breakfast with a couple of friends, and after a good meal and some satisfactory conversation, none of us having anything else planned, we decided to throw the baseball around, as is not at all uncommon in our group. I find it a really relaxing way to pass the time, as well as a useful and enjoyable form of exercise amongst friends.

Joey, likely the most athletic out of the three of us, brought his gym back with baseballs and gloves and bats, so after throwing for a while, Trent offered to shag for him, and Joey started swinging. After settling into the scene creatively and getting several shots I knew I didn’t like, I found my niche, and began shooting away. Here are the photos I came away with after processing. Enjoy.
