On Wednesday evening I shot a Little League game between The Northeast Sales and Hawthorne Drugs. The Northeast Sales are trying to raise money to build a field for a former member of their team who died last year after being involved in a car accident with a drunk driver.
The light was beautiful and I had really great access so I felt like I was able to get some really good shots. There are about 11 more photos before the cut.
