Queens of the Diamond: Ready Position
“Ready Position” is the fifth image in my summer series, “Queens of the Diamond“. The image depicts the shortstop in the ready position as she waits to make a play on a ball hit in her direction. This athletic position allows her to move lateral or charge a ball hit directly at her. On this occasion, the ball was not hit to her but she would eventually move towards second base to receive the ball and force the runner coming from first.
Sports photography is not my forte but I have set out to capture some special moments for my daughter’s fast pitch team. I will post some of the best images here on Greg’s Blog throughout the summer. I hope you decide to follow along as I chronicle the girls’ journey while expanding my photographic range. I look forward to hearing what you have to say. Please leave feedback in the comment section below.
Image captured in May 2022 at the Steve Brown Sports Complex, Brantford, Ontario.
