Hi everyone. For years I took pictures of my kids participating in various youth sports. My oldest son, who wasn't into sports himself, was my helper. He had a knack for getting candid pictures that perfectly captured the emotion of the moment. I was too technically focused, trying to get perfect "action" shots, but my son would see something funny in the dugout, or a musing expression on a spectator, and knew instinctively that moment would make a good photo. Looking at his photos it was like reliving that moment--I could never seem to "see" those same moments when they happened but my son could. I guess it's what people call having "the eye". Well, he died less than 2 years ago at 25. I want to try and get started in photography again as a way to honor my son. But I can't seem to get started. So joining this forum in the hopes of seeing some pictures that might give me inspiration.
