Baseball Experimental

For some reason, I got bored at the baseball game tonight. I didn’t feel like making player photos. I decided to try something different. I didn’t have my tripod with me, so this little experiment isn’t what it could have been. I made a multiple photo sequence of a pitcher delivering the ball towards home plate. I stacked those in Photoshop and played with the opacity of each layer to produce this image. Based on the experiment, I think I like the idea. I may try it again soon to see if I can improve on it…
hey! Isn’t there a way to do that ‘in camera?’

Unfortunately there is not. If I was shooting film instead of digital, I could do something similar, but in this sequence, my LAST exposure is the solid shot rather than the first…
