2012 State Softball: One Photographer. Two Views

We’re on to the semifinal games of the five-day Iowa High School State Softball Tournament in Fort Dodge. I mounted a remote camera focused on second base on the first base fence. It was connected to a radio trigger where I could fire the camera from my position on some scaffolding on the third base side. The technique really comes in handy when you need photos from both teams.

Here is the photo taken with the remote camera:
