Scott and Homey - thanks for the comments. Regarding the crops....the ones of the outfielders making the catch...these were a heavy crop because of the distance. The other ones were shot tight pretty much what you see.
Homey, since I started shooting tighter, it appears sales have increased. Parents want to see their faces (most of the time). I have on occassion sold stuff that leaves me scratching my head and I have already asked customers why they chose a certain image.
I just sold 4 - 8x10's the other day to parents of a senior of a HS softball pitcher. The mom gave me explicit instructions on how they wanted them cropped. Of all the prints I sold, this was the first time anyone has given be instructions on how to crop. Out of curiosity, I asked the mom why....she told me that the pictures are being put away for a later date and will be put into some "hall of fame". So I gave her what she wanted. (I gotta find out more on this hall of fame thing).
Personally I like to shoot action but if the action isn't there, I start going for a candid sportrait...facial expressions - stuff like that. I also found an increase in sales for the upper levels (high school) as well based on the tighter cropped shots.
Hope this helps
