Dodgers vs Colorado Rockies 04/27/08

We went to a Dodger game this weekend. The game went into extra innings, and the Dodgers won! It was unseasonably warm (it's going to be very hot in So Cal this year, lol). I was very pleased with the way these pictures came out. I was sitting in the shade, using my Sony A100 DSLR with the kit lens (18-70mm). 70mm doesn't offer much zoom, but the pictures came out quite nicely. If you click on the image to view the larger image (which I resized/reduced the resolution), you can see the ball in motion as it's leaving the pitcher's hand - that's #44, Saito, by the way. Enjoy.

What is This?


Any idea what this is, or where it was taken? This is a little experiment that I did yesterday. The only hints that I'm providing: (1) it was taken indoors; (2) I shot this simply by using the Night Portrait scene mode on my camera; (3) This image was NOT edited in any way using Photoshop or any other image editor. The only thing I did this to image was resize it using Microsoft PowerToys. Any guesses????
