great timing. I love that in the shadow you can see that the ball is not actually touching the bat any longer.

Excellent capture! I think I'd crop the left and the top a bit to come in closer to the action (and also make the headless ump and the other guy in the background appear less noticeable). Terrific color and contrast. :)
